1 Wheatfield Prison (IPS) and Irish Red Cross () Partnership Project Community Based Health and First Aid (CBH&FA) in Action Improving prison community health awareness and education through Irish Red Cross Prisoner Volunteers as peer educators Version 2 09
2 Project Proposal Pilot Community Based Health & First Aid (CBH&FA) in Action Programme at Wheatfield Prison, Dublin, Ireland A Partnership between Irish Red Cross & Irish Prison Service Introduction and Context in the Irish Prison Service has been predominantly reactive and only in recent years has a healthcare management structure been implemented. The new approach to health is based upon the Health Care Standards of the Irish Prison Service (2004). These have laid the foundation for moving health from a reactive medical model to a proactive and preventive one concerned with the whole person. In addition, a multi-disciplinary approach is advocated in line with WHO (2007) Whole-Prison Approach to healthcare in prisons. At Wheatfield Prison, healthcare is provided from a Health Centre serving the prison community with a prison doctor and a group of qualified nurses. Specialist medical services in Dentistry, STI, Addiction and Forensic Psychiatry are available through an in-reach programme with visiting consultants of the Health Service Executive. Psychology and Addiction Counselling is also available to prisoners at Wheatfield. Health education and awareness has been provided mostly by first aid and healthy living instructors based at the Wheatfield. Some informal health awareness is provided by medical and nursing staff of the health centre. However, there has been a disconnection between service healthcare and the important health promotion work undertaken at Wheatfield. A recent partnership has been directed to look at ways of closing this gap between school and healthcare. It is recognized, however, that only a proportion of prisoners attend the Wheatfield and health awareness does not therefore reach all prisoners. Wheatfield Prison Health Care Service CBH&FA in Action Targeting Prisoners as Vulnerable People in the Community Wheatfield Prison Service (VEC) Irish Red Cross Model of the Partnership at Wheatfield Prison 2
3 Both the school and healthcare recognize that the most effective awareness could be addressed in the prison through a system of peer education and this project aims to develop this. The Irish Red Cross has recently started to engage with Wheatfield Prison Health and Services and it has been identified that the notion of Red Cross Volunteering, within the prison, might be the ideal way of introducing a bottom up approach to health awareness in prisons through developing peer educators. Rationale The purpose of this project is to create a mechanism for improving the health and wellbeing of prisoners as a vulnerable community group of Irish Society through the introduction of peer educators in the prison units. The Irish Prison Service Health Care Standards (2004) are designed to facilitate a change in the approach towards the more proactive and preventive. This requires a considerable input into health education and awareness which can be more powerful when provided through peers. A proven peer-educator system can be seen through the unique worldwide network of the Red Cross/Red Crescent Movement. Building on what is Already There Wheatfield prison has an effective and a FETAC accredited Occupational First Aid Course which has graduated 20 students. It is proposed to give these 20 students the CBH&FA course building on their first aid training which equates to Module 4 as the entry point to the programme. Aim of the Project To model out the new approach in a novel context likely to test the flexibility and robustness of the intended design as an IN ACTION approach to CBH and FA to provide the identified learning needs of prisoners towards better health. Objectives By the end of the project, 1. One full Action Learning cycle will be completed which identifies the assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of the cycle. 2. Lessons learned will be documented for national, international and global relevance which highlight how the CBH&FA design content and process can be used in action. 3. The key elements of the flexible design identified in the Implementation Guide will be tested and demonstrated in practice 4. There will be a measurable impact made in developing Standard 5 and awareness related to other Standards of the Irish Prison Service Health Care Standards (2004) in conjunction with the Health Care Service of the prison. 5. A real-time example of how a national Red Cross/Red Crescent Society in partnership with school services can contribute to the corporate goals of part of a national health service. 6. Volunteers will engage with their prison community inmates through learning and doing during the course, improving knowledge of relevant health and first aid. Tangible Outputs 15 Prison-based Volunteers will complete the CBH&FA in Action Programme The programme entry point of a public health emergency (pandemic influenza), contributes to the prison community preparedness initiative. 3
4 Prisoner volunteers will become more empowered in their school work through participation in the project as RC volunteers. Prisoners involved in the programme will become better aware of humanitarian principles and the concept of volunteering, thus influencing for the better, the way they think about being part of society at large when they return to it. Prisoners will have potentially added to their future employability through their commitment as an volunteer. 400 prisoners will improve their knowledge of community based health and first aid relevant to their current prison community life and their previous home community context of living. Prisoners will learn from their past community-based living to better prepare them for returning to their community after their sentence is completed. Lessons learned will include how Red Cross Societies and Prisons can work together The pilot programme will be able to be extended to other Irish Prison sites and branches of the to contribute to the Health Care Standards (2004) nationally. The lessons learned whilst implementing this project in a prison context can be used in the development of similar partnerships in different contexts and cultures.

5 Draft Project Planning Matrix Wheatfield Prison-Irish Red Cross Partnership Initiative Introdu Pilot Community Based Health & First Aid In Action Indicator Sources of Verification Assumptions/ Risks Overall Goal A cadre of RC Special Volunteers are active in Learning by Doing in their local prison community about promoting health and first aid relevant to needs identified. Evidence of a change in the community that reflects healthier behaviours and knowledge. Good results in end of Topic tests The project is supported by Governors and Discipline Officers of Wheatfield Prison, the and IFRC Health & Care Geneva. Project Objective volunteers complete the CBH&FA course. 2. Communities in each unit of F and G Divisions have an increased awareness about relevant health and first aid issues volunteers complete the course and receive certificates from /IFRC 2. Health Centre patients attend for prevention as well as reacting to health problems / Audit of clinic attendees and triage information Resources are available Volunteers are supported in their community peer education roles among the units. Prisoner community willing to accept the peer educators. 3. Post learning test/quizzes indicate improved knowledge Results of quizzes and tests Prisoners can read and write. Expected Results The prisoner community at Wheatfield has become proactively empowered instead of only reactive in health. More prisoners are interfacing with health centre nurses for preventive health instead of reactively seeking the doctor to cure. Triage / nurse-led clinic records. Statistics about nurse-led activity and health awareness. 5
