The Secure Psychiatric Unit of the NH Department of Corrections provides mental health services to patients with civil and criminal commitments. The program serves individuals from the entire state who are a danger to themselves or others, as defined by one of 8 state statutes. Situated within the State Prison for Men, the environment is correctional, but the care is rehabilitative in nature. Join us for a glimpse into working in the SPU thought photographs, stories and examples of treatment interventions.

Upon completion of the module, participants will be able to:
1. Describe two key factors in working in a mental health facility within a prison
2. Name two categories of commitment that characterize patients at the SPU
3. Describe two frequent RT interventions at SPU
