Testimonials from TeamCenturion
Be Part of The Solution
Centurion Health strives to solve the broad societal challenges that lead to high levels of incarceration. Often, it is inside a correctional facility where many persons finally receive the proper diagnostic and treatment services they so desperately need. The demand for healthcare services in correctional settings is high, and most patients embrace the services offered to them. As correctional healthcare professionals, we believe we are serving where our services are needed most.
A Great Need
Over 2 million individuals annually are incarcerated in prisons and detention centers across the United States. We work to bring health equity to them.
Higher Risk
Individuals with a history with history of criminal justice interactions tend to have more significant and advanced chronic diseases, mental health illness, and advanced dental disease. Clinicians with good skills and cultural competency are needed.
More Trauma
Those who become justice-involved have higher rates of trauma and repetitive trauma, be it physical, sexual, emotional, or mental. Our approaches integrate trauma-informed models.
