East China's Fujian province has rolled out innovative measures to better protect medical and family bonding rights of inmates, according to fjsen.com.

Prisons are covered by the social medical and health care system in the province since 2010. The number of medical workers at prisons has doubled, and social medical institutions started setting up infirmaries in detention houses in December 2011.

In order to facilitate meetings between inmates and their families, 58 detention houses provide one-way video meetings, and 62 provide two-way video meetings on the Internet.
