Abstract

ABSTRACT For people living with HIV, correctional facilities, such as jails, prisons, and remand centers in Canada are complex environments at the intersection of health, justice, social, and criminal systems. Turning toward experiences, I explore my stories and observations of working with people living with HIV as a registered nurse in a large correctional facility in Western Canada. Based upon a narrative understanding of experience, I inquire into these stories and observations through the application of Mary Douglas’ theoretical work on purity versus impurity and Michèle Lamont’s symbolic boundary work. I engage in a reflective dialogue with the newfound meanings and understandings produced and discuss significant personal, practice-based, social, and policy-based insights within the context of my nurse researcher-practitioner role. This dialogue draws attention and raises questions about social practices, HIV-related stigma, correctional nursing, and the particularities of life evident within correctional facilities. Clinical implications for correctional nurses are discussed.

在教养环境中探索艾滋病毒感染者的道德分类和象征边界

对于艾滋病毒感染者来说，加拿大的监狱、监狱和还押中心等惩教设施是一个复杂的环境，处于卫生、司法、社会和刑事系统的交叉点。转向经验，我探索我的故事和观察工作与艾滋病毒感染者作为注册护士在加拿大西部的一个大型惩教机构。基于对经验的叙事性理解，我通过运用玛丽·道格拉斯关于纯洁与不纯洁的理论工作和米歇尔·拉蒙特的象征边界工作来探究这些故事和观察。我与新发现的意义和理解进行了反思对话，并在我的护士研究从业者角色的背景下讨论了重要的个人、实践、社会和政策见解。这种对话引起了人们的注意，并提出了有关社会实践、与艾滋病毒有关的耻辱、惩教护理以及惩教设施中明显的生活特殊性的问题。临床意义的矫正护士进行了讨论。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Forensic Nursing (JFN) the official journal of the International Association of Forensic Nurses, is a groundbreaking publication that addresses health care issues that transcend health and legal systems by articulating nursing’s response to violence. The journal features empirical studies, review and theoretical articles, methodological and concept papers, and case reports that address the provision of care to victims and perpetrators of violence, trauma, and abuse. Topics include interpersonal violence (sexual assault, abuse, intimate partner violence); death investigation; legal and ethical issues; forensic mental health nursing; correctional nursing; and emergency and trauma nursing.
