Custody Health Services

We provide medical services in court holding rooms, supporting our clients by providing responsive services that ensure the welfare of individuals in their care.
Our Services:
  • We supply telephone and on-site medical services to individuals in court holding rooms.

  • When required we deploy specialist paramedics to courts who are well-versed in working in custodial settings.

Responding to medical issues and emergencies in court holding room settings can prove challenging, and custody managers and their staff are often presented with medical situations that require professional medical advice. Individuals in their care can suffer from a range of issues, from a headache to emergency situations, with many suffering from drug withdrawal.

Supported by our bespoke triage systems, our highly experienced team are able ask the right questions to quickly evaluate the situation and deliver tailored advice and guidance to achieve the right outcomes. On some occasions this entails advice to immediately ‘Blue Light’ the individual when they require urgent or life-saving treatment.

If medically necessary, we will deploy a paramedic to the court to attend to the patient in person.
