RIC Issues and Concerns
Emergency Plans:
Facility policies should be amended to emphasize the protection of detainees from disease,
property damage, or harassment from other detainees. The Emergency Plans should also address
confidentiality, accountability, annual review procedureS/schedule and revisions. A
comprehensive general section with procedures applicable to most emergency situations should
accompany the contingency plans.
Locations of shut-offvalves and switches for all utilities (water, gas, electric) should be included
in the Emergency Plans. Written procedures should also cover work/food strikes, internal
searches, detainee transportation system plans, and civil disturbances.

Environmental Health and Sa(etv:
Fire drills are currently being conducted and documented quarterly. It is recommended the fire
drills be conducted and documented monthly. These drills should be conducted during every
shift at least once per quarter.

Security Inspections:
The facility does not have a comprehensive security inspection policy. Several policies address
inspections, but are fragmented and do not address guidelines for checking all security features
with procedures for reporting weak spots, recurring problems, areas needing improvement,
failure to take corrective action, or inconsistencies. The facility does not have written procedures
in place to compel searches of storage/supply rooms, plumbing fixtures, accesses, and drains. It
is recommended the policies be amended to address these concerns.

Use of Force:
Written procedures should direct a health professional be consulted as part of the confrontation
avoidance procedures, and that medication not be used for restraint purposes unless authorized
by the Medical Department The use of protective gear when restraining detainees with open
cutS or wounds, in order to prevent injury or exposure to communicable disease, should be
reflected in written procedures. Standard procedures associated with using four-point restraints
should also be defined in written policy.

COMMENTS: In September 2007, a 41 year old female inmate (not ICE detainee) collapsed in her cell. CPR was initiated and she
was transferred to Grady Medical Center where she was pronounced dead. Autopsy revealed the cause of death "Natural Causes".
The mortality review concluded no further action was required. .

The Atlanta City Detention Center is in the process of seeking ACA Accreditation and it is evident that a lot of effort has exerted
towards meeting this goal. In recognition of the improvements made the reviewing team recommends a rating of "Good".

The facility has a system for classifying detainees. In CDFs and IOSAs,
an Objective Classification System or similar is used.
The facility classification system includes:
• Classifying detainees upon arrival;
• Separating from the general population those individuals who
cannot be classified upon arrival; and
• The rust-line supervisor or designated classification specialist
reviewing every classification decision.
The intake/processing officer reviews work-folders, A-files, etc., to
identify and classify each new arrival.
Staff uses only infonnation that is factual, and reliable to detennine
classification assignments. Opinions and unsubstantiated! unconfrrmed
reports may be filed but are not used to score detainees classifications.
Housing assiJmments are based on classification-level.
A detainee's c1assification~level does not affect hislher recreation
opportunities. Detainees recreate with persons of similar classification
designations.
Detainee work assignments are based upon classification designations.

The classification procesS includes reassessment/reclassification. At
IOSA's detainees may request reassessment 60 days after arrival.
Procedures exist for a detainee to appeal their classification assignment.
Only a designated supervisor or classification specialist has the,authority
to reduce a classification-level on appeal.
Classification appeals are resolved within five business days and
detainees are notified of the outcome within 10 business days.
Classification designations may be appealed to a higher authority, such
as the Warden or equivalent.
The Detainee Handbook or equivalent for lOSAs explains the
classification levels, with the conditions and restrictions applicable to
each.

The facility subscribes to the prescribed Confrontation Avoidance
Procedures.

Ranking detention official, health professional, and others
confer before every calculated use offorce.

When a detainee must be forcibly moved and/or restrained, and there is
time for a calculated use of force, staff uses the Use-of-Force Team
Technique.

Under staff supervision.
Staff members are trained in the performance of the Use-of-Force Team
Technique.
All use-of-force incidents are documented and reviewed.
Staff:
• Do not use force as punishment;
• Attempt to gain the detainee's voluntary cooperation before
resorting to force;
• Use only as much force as necessary to control the
detainee; and
• Use restraints only when other non-confrontational means,
including verbal persuasion, have failed or are impractical.
Medication may only be used for restraint purposes when authorized by
the Medical Authority as medically necessary.

06-77 (Use of Physical Force)
directs that a staff member is
authorized to respond to an
immediate-use-of-fQrce situation
without a supervisor's presence
or direction.
SOP 06-77 states that an officer
will first exhaust all lesser
means of restraints to control a
recalcitrant or assaultive inmate,
including verbal persuasion.

The facility subscribes to
Confrontation Avoidance
Procedures; however, written
procedures do not direct that a
health professional be consulted
as part of the avoidance
. procedures.
The facility has a Corrections
Emergency Response Team
(CERT) to facilitate calculated
use of force situations.

SOP 06-77 (Use of Physical
Force) prohibits staff from using
force as punishment.

Facility policy does not prohibit
the use of medication for
restraint purposes unless
authorized by the Medical
Authority.
Facility policy and procedures
do not address the prevention of
injury or exposure to
communicable disease.
