Social work in prisons is linked to specific tasks regarding the care for the people who are incarcerated. A multi-country qualitative study was set up to explore drug users’ and professionals’ perceptions of continuity of care in prison and beyond. It has been pointed out that continuity of care is associated with different barriers, especially regarding social work. Nevertheless, good practice examples do exist and could be implemented by social workers. Social workers and opioid users face challenges in the context of imprisonment, so different measures need to be implemented to support opioid users and for social workers to support them.

监狱内外吸毒者的持续护理：定性洞察

监狱中的社会工作与照顾被监禁者的具体任务相关联。开展了一项多国定性研究，以探讨吸毒者和专业人员对监狱内外护理连续性的看法。有人指出，护理的连续性与不同的障碍有关，尤其是在社会工作方面。尽管如此，良好实践的例子确实存在并且可以由社会工作者实施。社会工作者和阿片类药物使用者在监禁的背景下面临挑战，因此需要采取不同的措施来支持阿片类药物使用者并让社会工作者支持他们。
