Security & Stethoscopes
Where secure environments meet compassionate medical practice.
Security and Stethoscopes is an inside look at the world of correctional healthcare—an often‑misunderstood field where medicine, safety, and humanity intersect every day. Hosted by professionals from Quality Correctional Health Care (QCHC), each episode explores the unique challenges, responsibilities, and rewards of providing high‑quality medical care behind correctional walls.
From the balance between clinical judgment and security protocols, to real stories from the front lines, to discussions on ethics, staffing, policy, and public misconceptions, this podcast opens the door to a world few see but many have questions about.
Whether you're part of the general public, a county or facility administrator, or a healthcare professional considering a career in corrections, Security and Stethoscopes offers clear, honest, and accessible conversations that illuminate the mission of caring for some of society’s most vulnerable patients in some of its most secure settings.
