Safety and Security in Correctional Facilities
Safety and security in correctional facilities involve measures to protect staff, inmates, and the public by preventing violence, escapes, and threats. This includes careful inmate supervision, secure physical structures, controlled access, and monitoring for risky behavior. Maintaining a safe environment requires constant vigilance, effective policies, and staff training to manage conflicts, prevent contraband, and respond swiftly to emergencies. Overall, these efforts aim to create a secure setting that reduces harm and promotes rehabilitation within the correctional system.
