    First you contact the Warden of the prison. If that does not resolve the problem then you contact the Kentucky Department of Corrections. If that does not do it, you contract the Governor of the state.

    U R screwed.
    It is a prelude to Obamma’s health plan.

  4. Tell her to go man down (pretend to faint) and they’ll treat her to the best of their ability.

  5. You need to obtain a medical release form & take it to her primary care physician who initially diagnosed her and then present it to the warden.

  6. Part of the problem in prison health care, state and federal, is that the system is fraught with malingerers which make it almost impossible for prison personnel to determine which symptoms are real and which are fake, unless it is something which is quantifiable, like rectal temperature.

    The answer which referenced the KY Dept of Prisons and KY Governor is completely wrong. KY has almost no authority concerning a federal prison. However, in the federal system, contact the Warden, the U.S. DOC, your congressman, and the office of the U.S. Attorney General, in that order.
