Hi I was wondering if a family member of yours had a heart attack in prison can they be transferred over to regular hospital and could you sue if the prison didnt notify you until a week after (not to mention the inmate had to have surgery and is married ...
Answer
The IDOC has a duty to provide medical attention to prisoners. The IDOC does have the option of transferring a prisoner to a regular hospital. To answer the question about notification, you should contact a lawyer who specializes in prisoner litigation:
