The Effect of Hygiene and Sanitation Levels on the Health Level of Prisoners

Prisoner health is a crucial aspect of the correctional system. Unhygienic environmental conditions and poor sanitation can have fatal consequences for prisoners' health, particularly in terms of the spread of infectious diseases. This research aims to analyze the impact of hygiene levels on prisoners' health. This study employs quantitative research methods, collecting data through surveys using questionnaires and literature reviews. The collected data were analyzed using regression tests with the SPSS program. The results indicate a significant relationship between the level of hygiene and sanitation and the health status of prisoners. Prisoners living in more hygienic environments with better sanitation have better health levels. This study emphasizes the importance of improving hygiene and sanitation conditions in prisons to enhance prisoners' health.
