This is a great program as it gives the prisoners something to do and also gives something back to the community. Working in the jail is not just watching prisoners in their cells. Of primary concern are the safety and care of inmates. Trips to medical and dental facilities, transporting inmates to courts, and to and from other jail facilities are some of the duties that are performed on a daily basis. Organizing recreational time, religious services and seeing that visitations are run efficiently are some of the activities that the jail personnel are required to oversee.
Teamwork is the key for the efficient operation of our jail facility.
Officers must constantly be alert and look out for the safety of themselves and those they work with. Needless to say, this is a bit stressful at times. Criminal Investigations Our Criminal Investigations Division is a multi faceted operation. The investigators wear a number of hats and often assist each other in investigations. The county is divided into zones for patrol purposes.
