The Pennsylvania Institutional Law Project sent an advocacy letter to the DOC expressing concern over the inadequate medical care being provided to a woman with diabetes at SCI Muncy. Amanda Blair, lives with Type I Diabetes, which SCI Muncy medical staff are not properly treating, causing her pain, fatigue, as well as increasing her risk of developing life-threatening complications. The letter urges DOC staff to intervene in Ms. Blair’s treatment to ensure that she receives regular Chronic Care appointments, vision testing, footcare, blood sugar monitoring, and an appropriate diet.
