It is a world of heartbreak, violence, and pain, where severely ill men are often lost in a tangle of courts, jails, and bureaucracy. It is also a place of challenges, redemption, and surprising joy, where tough, hardworking doctors and staff fight to care for and keep safe a population that many would like to forget. This is where Dr. Elizabeth Ford, now the Chief of Psychiatry for Correctional Health Services for New York City's Health and Hospitals, found her calling. Dr. Ford shares her stories of caring for these patients, from one of the most hated and alienated inmates at Rikers, who cries when discussing his abusive childhood, to the writer who agrees to treatment in exchange for Dr. Ford's take on the opening chapter of his book, to the twenty-four-year-old schizophrenic whom Dr. Ford later encounters on the streets of Manhattan, happy and healthy after finally finding the right medication. Ford's memoir is marked by explosive crises and episodes of violent psychosis, but also moving stories of compassion and hope in the face of overwhelming dysfunction. 000789570 60010 $$aFord, Elizabeth$$q(Elizabeth B.) 000789570 61020 $$aBellevue Hospital. 000789570 650_0 $$aPsychiatrists$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000789570 650_0 $$aMentally ill prisoners$$xCare$$zNew York (State)$$zNew York. 000789570 650_0 $$aPrisoners$$xMental health services$$zNew York (State)$$zNew York. 000789570 650_0 $$aPsychiatric hospitals$$zNew York (State)$$zNew York. 000789570 655_7 $$aAutobiographies.$$2lcgft 000789570 85200 $$bgen$$hRC438.6.F667$$iA3$$i2017 000789570 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:789570$$pGLOBAL_SET 000789570 980__ $$aBIB 000789570 980__ $$aBOOK
