I have several years of experience working in a correctional setting, including experience as a Correctional Officer and a Shift Supervisor. I have a strong understanding of the policies and procedures that are necessary for maintaining safety and security within the facility, and I have experience managing staff and dealing with challenging situations.

I prioritize safety and security in the facility by closely monitoring the actions of staff and inmates, and by implementing and enforcing strict policies and procedures. I also work closely with other members of the administration to develop and implement effective security protocols, and I ensure that staff members receive ongoing training on these protocols.

I manage staff by setting clear expectations, providing ongoing feedback and coaching, and holding staff members accountable for their actions. I also provide regular training and development opportunities to help staff members improve their skills. I handle difficult situations by remaining calm and composed, using active listening and effective communication skills, and by following established protocols and procedures.

I maintain discipline among inmates by consistently enforcing established rules and regulations, and by using progressive discipline when necessary. I also work closely with other members of the administration to develop and implement effective rehabilitation programs that help inmates address the underlying issues that led to their incarceration.

I interact with other members of the community in a professional and respectful manner, and I am committed to building strong relationships with community partners. I also make it a priority to keep the community informed about the facility's operations and security measures, and I welcome feedback and input from community members.

My approach to dealing with difficult inmates is to first assess the situation and determine the underlying cause of the inmate's behavior. I then use verbal de-escalation techniques to calm the situation and try to find a solution that is beneficial for both the inmate and the facility. If necessary, I will use physical force only as a last resort and in accordance with established policies and procedures.
