Forensic medicine has traditionally been understood as constituting a tension between medical and legal roles: a care-custody paradox. Rather than reinforcing this paradox, however, in this paper I will draw upon a study of Healthcare Professionals working within police custody suites in England in order to show the ways that they coproduce [Jasanoff, S., 2004. . London: Routledge] their work with the aim of simultaneously meeting the requirements of both their police (for instance PACE codes) and healthcare (for instance the Nursing and Midwifery Code of Practice) responsibilities. Focusing on acts of 'mundane care' [Brownlie, J. and Spandler, H., 2018. Materialities of mundane care and the art of holding one's own. , 40 (2), 256-269], the typification of detainees and the use of detention cells as risk management tools, I will show that rather than undergoing an existential crisis, Healthcare Professionals mobilise coproduced practices in order to perform their work successfully, thereby further enabling police and detention officers to achieve their custody objectives.
传统上，法医学被理解为在医学和法律角色之间构成一种张力：一种护理-监管悖论。然而，在本文中，我不会强化这种悖论，而是将借鉴一项针对在英格兰警察拘留室工作的医疗保健专业人员的研究，以展示他们共同开展工作的方式，目的是同时满足警方（例如《警察与刑事证据法》相关规定）和医疗保健（例如《护理与助产士执业守则》）职责的要求。聚焦于“日常护理”行为、被拘留者的类型化以及将拘留室用作风险管理工具，我将表明，医疗保健专业人员并未经历生存危机，而是调动共同产生的实践以成功开展工作，从而进一步使警察和拘留官员能够实现他们的拘留目标。
