We have recently introduced a restraint bed for an inmate who kept pulling his insides…out! Our written directive is currently in draft mode, so here it is.
He continued to injure himself unless he was restrained in 6 points, so medical staff helped ambulate his limbs, then we went right back in. Due to his behavior, he was under continuous direct observation of two ERT members at a time. Previously and for other inmates, we have used CNAs through a company contracted by our medical provider to lower the cost and labor, but those inmates were less disruptive. This inmate was reviewed daily by our Inmate Management Team comprised of sworn staff, medical, and mental health staff to keep his behavior plan relevant and up-to-date with his actions.
Please let me know if you have any questions!
No. They enter their scheduled hours in a payroll system and sign off on it at the end of the pay period.
Good afternoon!
Our jail utilizes the Band-It for high-risk transports and high-profile court cases. It is applied by our Emergency Response Team at our jail prior to transport. I have attached our written directive and associated forms.

I have attached our policy regarding inmate correspondence. We do not allow any physical personal mail at our facility anymore in effort to reduce drug soaked papers and postcards from coming in. Our mailing restrictions at listed in Section B of our attached Standard Operating Procedure. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.

OBrienM@StLucieSheriff.com | http://www.StLucieSheriff.comGood afternoon,
We conduct unannounced shakedowns all the time within our facility. I have attached our policy. Shakedowns are specifically mentioned in Section F. Our shift commanders are the ones responsible for ensuring shakedowns are completed. They will usually delegate to the wing supervisor and follow up once they are completed. The wing supervisors will log each shakedown on our shakedown log (an excel spreadsheet) and a deputy will write a report documenting the shakedown and any substantial findings.
Hey Megan! Our Court Security Unit is a function of our Department of Law Enforcement. They go through the same promotional process as law enforcement. Court Security is just an assignment so staff can be moved in and out of there as necessary.

OBrienM@StLucieSheriff.com |We follow FDLE’s physical agility test. All sworn staff must complete it annually. Staff hired after October 1, 2017 must complete it in 6 minutes and 4 seconds. Staff hired before that day must complete it but are not required to complete it within the time frame. Any staff member that completes it in under 5 minutes receives an extra personal day as an incentive. I have attached our policy, where it is referenced in Section IV, and FDLE’s test for reference.

OBrienM@StLucieSheriff.com | http://www.StLucieSheriff.comWe utilize Barbicide concentrate, which is locked in our Supply area. Each unit that issues clippers has spray bottles that they fill with concentrate and the appropriate dilution of water. The concentrate is inventoried in our Supply area and the spray bottles are inventoried in each unit’s secured clipper box. Items are secured when not in use and and logged on the post log when they are issued to the inmates.
