Correction Officers are responsible for the immediate care and supervision of inmates within PCRDF. Each unit is operated in a constitutional, safe, and secure manner within the guidelines set forth in the US Constitution and all Federal, State, and Local Laws. Unit Deputies are charged with providing clean, safe, environmentally healthy living conditions, maintaining an orderly routine, ensuring the safety of the staff and inmates, and preventing the escape of those offenders remanded to custody, awaiting trial or serving sentences.
The main function of the Transport Section is to ensure all inmates held in our facility are transported to the assigned court. They also pick up inmates from the Department of Corrections for court then return the inmate back when they have completed their court appearance. Transport personnel conduct hospital runs, transport inmates to medical appointments, and provide security for the Courthouse Lock-up. They pick up and return juveniles to Juvenile Detention Facilities throughout the state for court hearings and detention.
The Detention Facility Special Emergency Response Team (S.E.R.T.) is a team of specially trained and equipped detention facility personnel. They are trained to respond to emergencies within the detention facility. These emergencies include but are not limited to, barricaded inmates, cell extractions, high-risk incidents, and hostage situations. Each member receives training in firearms, CPR/first aid, chemical agents, riot formations, mob dynamics, hostage situations, use of force, communications, and legal responsibilities, as well as many other areas. Each member of the team must pass a physical agility test as part of the team selection process. They must also take, and pass, the physical agility test annually to maintain qualifications.
