27 Mar The role of the Warden of a maximum custody state correctional facility
Use of force during the last few years has garnered a tremendous amount of attention from the public, the media, and the courts. Force is used as necessary inside correctional institutions. When authorized, staff must use only that amount of force necessary to gain control of the inmate; to protect and ensure the safety of inmates, staff, and others; to prevent serious property damage; and to ensure institution security and good order. There are times, however, when excessive force has been used. Other times, while not used excessively, it is used too often when other means such as verbal de-escalation skills could have been used.
In this assignment, you will take on the role of the Warden of a maximum custody state correctional facility. Your unit’s use of force incidents has dramatically increased over the last year to include a number of inappropriate uses of force. The Director of Corrections has tasked you with developing a one-year strategic plan aimed at reducing the number of uses of force.
Using assigned readings from Week 1 and 2 you are to fully cover the following points. Be sure to review the rubric to see how to earn maximum points.
