Female Healthcare VS Jail | New Amsterdam | MD TV

[@mel9662]

My cousin died in her jail cell because they refused to give her a life saving insulin injection! There’s a lawsuit against the employees that were involved and the city right now.

[@Sunshine_Ses]

I'm so sorry that happened to your cousin! People are so sick and negligent when it comes to women's Healthcare, especially in prison. I hope your family finally get the justice you deserve!

[@stephaniehawker3532]

Getting insulin has nothing todo with woman's health care.

[@hanzbananz657]

@@stephaniehawker3532 it kind of is when doctors and just people in general think that women are “hysterical” or “exaggerating” pain or how serious a condition is.

Media that not only exposes the flaws of the prison system but also so thoroughly humanises prisoners like this are so rare. Especially for American tv shows and movies. New Amsterdam just hits differently to other Hospital shows.

[@CelticRuneSinger]

I would not take new Amsterdam as a gospel Since I like the fudge their storylines

[@MiracleFound]

Healthcare in prisons is a joke, it rarely, if ever happens, despite what you hear.

[@duckmeat4674]

Youve been in prison?

[@MiracleFound]

@Duck Meat no, but a dear friend of mine was. I visited him routinely and talked to him a lot about it. He talked about so-called medical care in prison and it was appalling. I also have taken care of prisoners in the hospital hundreds of times over the years. One man stands out in that he developed gangrene in his colostomy and by time the prison decided to do anything about it, it was untreatable because of how advanced it was. While that in itself wasn't unusual, this man was in his early 30's. I have plenty of examples that would take far too long to detail, but the sheer lack of concern shown by the prison was incredible. An Appendix bursting became they ignored the prisoners complaints with the resulting peritonitis. This is a very rare occurrence except in prisoners. There is no excuse.

[@downhomesunset]

@@MiracleFound That’s awful-they are human beings and I find that the US system of for profit prisons is to blame. I don’t care if they say 99/100 fake to try to escape or just cause troubles. That 1 person counts and maybe more of of these so called troublemakers are in need of mental care and compassion. But they don’t want to rehabilitate prisoners, they want a revolving door for profits. Don’t even get me started on guards that sneak in contraband like drugs to make money of these poor souls!

Good Lord is it brutal. ISO in jail because of COVID was basically solitary. That was some hard time. By day five I'd made a little friend out of a Styrofoam cup and a spork. Blork the Alien. The boredom and the lack of human contact is overwhelming.

[@BRUNETTECANARY]

I was starting to think the female inmates were going to attack the hospital 😢 but it turns out the women's prison is being exposed as negligent. It's hard to fight for criminal rights..... Although judging by the end of the video, looks like the inmates in the hospital were going to make a run for it after all😮😮😮😮

[@Primus1243]

Yes. They were. There is another clip on the channel where the inmates escape to kill off the one that was in for a drug overdose because she's a witness. She was in surgery when one sneaks in and is able to stab her a few times. Outcome of her is unknown, but they got the other two when the two docs leads them to the area where the police were setting up and talking strategy in the temp HQ during the hospital lockdown.

[@overthinker5877]

[@stephenking5852]

Adam Ruins Everything touched upon this. It was called Adam Ruins Prison. Corporate prisons exist to make money rather than to lock up criminals, and will keep them in prison, regardless if they’re over their sentence or showed good behavior, because these prisons can be fined for a lotta money if they don’t have some inmate quota. Prisons also practice solitary confinement, which is actually a psychologically dangerous thing to do to anyone, because it prevents prisoners from socializing, and people are social creatures. It’s not even used only on the worst of the worst, it’s used on the mentally ill, the LGBT, and those who refuse to follow some rule, basically prisoners that guards don’t wanna deal with. Oh, and there’s the complete lack of prison education that criminals need to rebuild their lives and get their second chances, and when they do get out, they have to pay bills or else they go back to prison, which won’t be possible because no one is willing to hire felons, which is just a form of discrimination that is ignored compared to racism, homophobia, and transphobia.

[@Rheaheart128]

I thought it meant they would use her child as leverage to get what they want. Like "I have people on the outside who have eyes on your child. And if you don’t do what I want, I’ll have them kill/hurt your child"

The lady the actor is playing is in a solitary confinement cell. Humans are by nature, social creatures, and to forcibly deprive a human of social interaction for extended periods of time? The effects are detrimental to physical and emotional well-being. A brain not receiving any stimulation, will create its own. That's why the woman said she heard laughing, it was a depiction of isolation caused hallucinations and possible psychosis. Use of solitary confinement has irrefutable been proven time and time again to be ineffective and actively harmful.

Crime is more often than not an act of desperation. You steal bread to eat, you steal medicine to get healthy, you steal drugs because you have an addiction, you steal money because you don't have any, etc. etc. It's not just a question of not doing it, it's a matter of resolving the reasons that people need to at all.
