Appeal to Deputy Director: mental health denied in SHU (4/27-5/17) (6/10/22)

Pink DC DOC Appeal-Deputy Director form (PP 4030.1 Attachment G) filed by Ryan Nichols (DCDC# 376795, C2B) on 6/10/22. Responds to Deputy Director response of 6/9/22. Of 6 dates mentioned in their response, he was actually only seen and helped by mental health 2 of 6 times (4/27 and 5/17). Was not seen by mental health on 5/6, even though he requested to be seen on 5/5 and 5/6. Mental health was not available; the chaplain only asked whether he was suicidal or not, and not (in worsened conditions) cell that he was in at SHU-A. On 5/7 (5/8) he was only asked questions through a glass for everyone around to hear, the same questions being are you still feeling suicidal. The same exactly happened on 5/9. Mental Health only once a month for documented PTSD/ICD-10 sufferer is wholly inadequate.
