Abstract
ABSTRACT Older people in prisons are a vulnerable group with complex health and social care needs. German prisons have started to adapt to demographic changes and exemplary support services for older people are available in a few prisons, but a lack of age-specific support is widespread. National standards are needed to provide predictable conditions of imprisonment for older people. In order to achieve the goal of reintegrating older people into society on their release, more support is needed to help them age successfully. Expertise on aging should be used and fostered more widely. Palliative care services need to be developed.
