Correctional Facility Standards

Correctional Facility Standards are guidelines designed to ensure that prisons and jails maintain a safe, secure, and humane environment. They cover aspects like building safety, inmate treatment, staff training, security protocols, and health services. These standards aim to protect both staff and inmates, promote rehabilitation, and prevent issues like violence, abuse, or neglect. Regular inspections and adherence to these standards help facilities operate effectively, ensuring rights are respected and safety is prioritized for everyone involved.
