This study describes physical and mental health of incarcerated males age ≥50 who spent at least 20 consecutive years in prison, comparing those with life sentences (“lifers”) with those expected to be released/paroled. Data included demographics, chronic medical conditions, self-reported and objective disability, depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation (SI), and social support. The 65 participants (M age = 56.9 [SD = 6.6]) were racially diverse (40% White; 51% Black, 9% Hispanic/Other), incarcerated for M=26.6(SD=4.5) years, and 34(52%) were lifers. Among the 39(60%) of participants with visitors, lifers had lower social support scores (p=0.005). After controlling for age, race, and chronic conditions, lifers reported disability in a higher number of activities (p<0.001), and had higher depressive symptoms (p=0.08) and SI scores (p=0.04). Health-related differences between lifers and those expected to be released have implications for prison systems including staff training, advance care planning, and need for expanding prison-based hospice programs.
