ABSTRACT

Purpose: Recently released persons (RRP) from incarceration are at a higher-than-average risk of mortality post-incarceration. Additionally, the pervasiveness of substance use problems among incarcerated persons and lack of treatment both before and after release suggests substance use-related mortality is an especially concerning problem for persons recently released from incarceration.

Method: In this study, we examine associations between substance-use related mortality among a national sample of RRP from correctional facilities (N = 1,432).

Results: Our study highlights several significant associations between substance-use related mortality among RRP, including homicide and legal intervention as the manner of death. Persons in racial/ethnic minority groups, having a substance use and alcohol problem, and having a high school diploma/GED also resulted in significant higher likelihood of substance-use related mortality.

Discussion: These results underscore the need for professionals to assess for substance use behaviors prior to release and coordinate referral for care post-release.

最近从惩教设施释放的人的物质使用相关死亡率

摘要

目的:最近从监禁中获释的人 (RRP) 的监禁后死亡风险高于平均水平。此外,被监禁者中普遍存在的物质使用问题以及释放前后缺乏治疗表明,与物质使用相关的死亡率对于最近从监禁中释放的人来说是一个特别令人担忧的问题。

方法:在这项研究中,我们检查了来自惩教机构的全国 RRP 样本(N = 1,432)中物质使用相关死亡率之间的关联。

结果:我们的研究强调了 RRP 中物质使用相关死亡率之间的几个重要关联,包括杀人和法律干预作为死亡方式。种族/少数族裔群体、有物质使用和酒精问题以及拥有高中文凭/GED 的人也导致物质使用相关死亡的可能性显着更高。

讨论:这些结果强调专业人员需要在释放前评估物质使用行为并协调释放后的护理转介。
