CMCMC will <br />make recommendations regarding housing and handling requirements and <br />will provide follow-up care as indicated. <br />All inmate encounters will be documented and placed in the inmate's <br />medical record. <br />City of Santa Ana Jail -14- <br />Proposal for Inmate Mdical Services <br />RFP# 07-062 <br />25J-30
