NaphCare, Inc., a leading correctional healthcare company, has developed the MyCare Patient Portal to improve access to care and provide patients 24/7 visibility into their personal health information. Delivered through digital tablets in correctional facilities, MyCare connects patients directly with healthcare staff and enables access to personal medical records, including test results, medication details, upcoming appointments, and patient education resources. This increased access fosters greater patient engagement and understanding in their care plans, equipping individuals with the knowledge and tools to make healthier choices, ultimately helping to reduce recidivism and relapse. MyCare Patient Portal is fully integrated with NaphCare’s corrections-specific electronic health record (EHR), TechCare 5.0, enabling patients to securely and confidentially request health services for review by clinicians. “NaphCare wants to enable and empower our patients in their health journeys while incarcerated, but also increase those patients’ likelihood of stable reentry into their communities. MyCare is the latest collaboration that helps us all reach that goal,” said Charlie Barranco, Chief Information Officer for NaphCare. Read more below. ...Show more

In partnership with the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO), NaphCare, Inc., a leading correctional healthcare company, is proud to announce THRIVE, a Jail-Based Treatment Program (JBTP) for patients requiring specialized mental health treatment. Since September 2024, the voluntary treatment program has operated within a specialized mental health unit in the Washoe County Detention Facility. THRIVE fills a gap in care for this population, who are experiencing symptoms of serious mental illness in jail while they await transfer to or return from inpatient psychiatric hospitalization. The program is involved with the Washoe County Competency Court and supports patients by providing them with the advanced level of treatment needed to move forward in their legal cases and lives. “The Sheriff’s Office is pleased to partner with NaphCare on this innovative program, which seeks to improve outcomes for individuals housed in the jail-based mental health unit,” Washoe County Sheriff Darin Balaam said. “The deputies working in the unit are dedicated to collaboration with the assigned medical providers NaphCare has placed in the unit. Working together, and over a short period of time, we have already seen positive results from the program – a testament to the power of teamwork.” Read more below. ...Show more
