Abstract

The author of the article elucidates one of the theoretical and methodological issues of the criminal and executive law as to the matter of the convicts’ medical and sanitary care who serve their sentences in penal institutions and those who are kept in custody. In the article the author investigates the problem of the convicts’ medical and sanitary care and of those who are kept in custody in accordance with the national legislature and the international standards in the field of convicts’ rights protection. The author investigates the opinions of the scientists and employees of the state penitentiary service of Ukraine as to the problem of the medical system reforming of penal institutions and detention centers. The author of the article proves that the departmental belonging of the medical units in penal institutions is correct, nowadays convicts’ medical and sanitary care fully corresponds to the international standards in the field of convicts’ rights protection. The suggested changes in the national legislature as to taking out the medical units in penal institutions from the state penitentiary service of Ukraine prove to be incorrect and giving medical care to convicts and inmates kept in custody in detention centers by medical personnel of the Ministry of Health protection of Ukraine is untimely taking into account their present state. Legal adoption of the suggested changes may lead to considerable worsening of the medical and sanitary care level of convicts and those who are kept in custody.
