This will be accomplished while treating all people we come in contact with, with respect and with dignity for both the O’odham Culture and traditions, and personal rights. All persons charged with the responsibility of managing inmates will do so with a high degree of personal account- ability and adherence to established policy. The Corrections Division will promote positive change in inmate behavior while preparing the individual to return to their community and contribute to the Tohono O’o- dham Nation in a positive manner. This will be accom- plished by utilizing resources in the community and devel- oping partnerships to deliver services to inmates. All this will be accomplished while continuing to strive for excellence, innovation, and personal growth. 3 Introduction This manual is used to train and evaluate Recruit Corrections Officers, which are referred to through this manual as CTO (Corrections Trainee Officer) indicating their trainee status. The CTO will be trained and evaluated in the various duties they are most likely to perform during their career with the Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections Facility. All situations and challenges a Corrections Officer may encounter cannot be incorporated into this manual. The material presented herein constitutes a foundation upon which the CTO should build toward becoming an effective Corrections Officer. It is not the goal of this program to produce a fully experienced Corrections Officer, but it is a structured program, in which trains and introduces a CTO to the basic responsibilities and duties of a Corrections Officer. What we evaluate, in essence, is the Corrections Trainee Officer’s response to training. This program is intended to give the new Officer instruction, direction, supervision, guidance, and experience so that they may develop judgment, efficiency, and good habits of conduct and appearance. It cannot be overemphasized that during the Corrections Field Training Program that the Field Train- ing Officer (FTO) and the Corrections Trainee Officer (CTO) are not a two-person team. Each CTO is encourage to speak freely to their Field Training Officer, Sergeant, Assistant Corrections Administrator, or Corrections Administrator at any time they feel the need for advice or needs to dis- cuss a personal or professional problem. 4 Code of Ethics As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve the Tohono O’odham Nation; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the inmates, co-workers, and the public I come in contact with, and to treat all with the respect and dignity every person deserves. I will keep my private life unsullied as an example to all and will behave in a manner that does not bring discredit to me or to the Tohono O’odham Nation Police Department. I will maintain cou- rageous calm in the face of danger, scorn or ridicule; develop self-restraint; and be constantly mindful of the welfare of others. Honest in thought and deed both in my personal and official life, I will be exemplary in obeying the law and the regulations of the Tohono O’odham Nation Cor- rections Facility. Whatever I see or hear of a confidential nature or that is confided to me in my official capacity will be kept ever secret unless revelation is necessary in the performance of my duty. I will never act officiously or permit personal feelings, prejudices, political beliefs, aspirations, ani- mosities or friendships to influence my decisions. With no compromise for criminal behavior and with relentless prosecution of criminals, I will enforce the law and facility regulations courteously and appropriately without fear or favor, malice or ill will, never employing unnecessary force or violence and never accepting gratuities. I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of Corrections service. I will never engage in acts of corrup- tion or bribery, nor will I condone such acts by other Corrections officers. I will cooperate with all legally authorized agencies and their representatives in the pursuit of justice. I know that I alone am responsible for my own standard of professional performance and will take every reasonable opportunity to enhance and improve my level of knowledge and competence. I will constantly strive to achieve these objectives and ideals, while maintaining the upmost profes- sionalism. __________________________________ Print Name Date __________________________________ Signature Date 5 FTO Responsibilities & Duties The Field Officer is the essential means by which the goal of the program is achieved. Specifically, the Field Officer’s goal is to produce a Corrections Officer who is able to work a solo assignment in a safe, skillful, pro- ductive, and professional manner. The Field Officer has two primary goals to fulfill: (1) Is that of a Corrections Officer assuming their daily re- sponsibilities within the Corrections Facility, and (2) that of a Field Training Officer (FTO). In their role as a trainer, they provide on-going instruction in a traditional sense, utilizing innovative and prac- tical techniques. The Field Officer must have the necessary skills to become a reliable evaluator of a Correc- tions trainee’s performance. Field Training Officers are required write daily, weekly, and end of program evaluations of performance and submit additional documentation, as needed. Because the FTO’s performance is subject to evaluation and scrutiny, the Field Officer’s professional and personal conduct should be exemplary. A Field Officer should posses and recognize the need for possessing a higher sense of idealism than which is generally found throughout the Corrections program. The Field Of- ficer should understand that the effectiveness, image and future of Corrections is substantially decided by the quality of its personnel. At all times the Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections General Orders will be used as a training aid. It cannot be overemphasized, that the Field Officer must maintain a student-teacher relationship with the trainee. During the Corrections training program the FTO and the CTO are not a two-person team. The student-teacher relationship is the foundation of the program. All FTO’s are required to attend an annual (8 hours) in-service training, so that they are aware of what is ex- pected of them and the new trainees. During the in-service, the FTO’s will gain in-house Field Training Certi- fication for the Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections Training Program. 6 Training Evaluation Overview Throughout the Corrections Field Training Program, several different forms of evaluation will be con- ducted. Each evaluation assists in the efficiency and accountability of the program, as well as allow a standardized way of evaluating. To standardize the evaluation process a FTO Evaluation Guideline was created; this guideline shall maintain consistency of evaluations from one CTO to the next, ensuring the most accurate and equivalent training. The following evaluations and guidelines are as follows: Daily Observation— This evaluation serves as a checklist of tasks that should be performed daily by the CTO and rated by the FTO in a total of 30 Daily Observations at the end of the Training. Also remedial training needed can be assessed from the daily observation evaluation. This form also affords the FTO to describe the most and least acceptable performance of the CTO for that day. Phase Evaluations — Are weekly evaluations of specific tasks as describe on the evaluation form. Report Exemplar Evaluation—Are (5) evaluations that rate example incident reports based on scenarios assigned by the FTO and submitted to the Field Training Supervisor. Self Evaluation Forms— The CTO will evaluate themselves following the completion of the Corrections Field Training Program. This will assist the Training Program and give training suggestions to the Field Training Supervisor. Evaluation of the FTO — Allows the CTO to evaluate their trainer as well as the Corrections Field Train- ing Program as a whole. 7 FTO Evaluations Guidelines Performance Tasks Driving Skills – Evaluates CTO’s skill in the operation of a Corrections vehicle. #1 NOT ACCEPTABLE Disobeys traffic laws and frequently violates policy and training reference the operation of Correc- tions vehicles.

This course should nurture a better understanding of policies and procedures. The use of policies and procedures will assist the Corrections Officers in the event of litigation by the community or an individual, as well as assist in the overall operations of the Corrections Facility. The Cor- rections Officer must first understand what is meant by policy and procedure, and the importance of policies and procedures in operating a Corrections Facility. Through lecture, class discussion, and required reading, this course is designed to examine the need for and use of policy and procedures. The use of policy and procedures will assist in the overall operations of the facility. 1. Identify the definition of a policy and the definition of a procedure. 2. Identify the reasons for policies and procedures for inmate and staff life safety. 3. Identify why we develop policies and procedures and who can use them. Identify the definition of a policy and procedures POLICY- Is a definitive statement of an organization’s position on an issue of concern to the effective operation of an organization Provides direction to staff by communicating the organization’s philosophy and work plan Aid in promoting consistency, efficiency, and professionalism by standardizing the methods by which organizational goal and objectives are achieved.

The personal safety of everyone in detention is important. The life-safety equipment, like smoke detectors, are in the facility to help keep a safe environment. Respect of the equipment by not tampering with or allowing others to tamper with life-safety devices and by reporting any broken life-safety devices on a work order. In an emergency (such as a fire, natural disaster, or power failure), it is very important that staff give complete clear instructions on the procedure for everyone’s safety. Security procedures are also for everyone’s safety while at the facility, either working or be housed there. The staff will observe the inmates in their living areas periodically. Parts of the facility may be on closed circuit television. Why we develop policies and procedures and who has the responsibility and authority to revise and change policies. To provide direction to staff by communicating the organization’s philosophy and work plan. Aid in promoting consistency, efficiency, and professionalism by standardizing the methods by which organizational goals and objectives are achieved. Organizational philosophy.

NOTE: AT THIS TIME, THE CTO MAY USE KEYS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THEIR FTO. 48 Phase V COURT PAPERWORK When an inmate is charged with a criminal complaint, they will go to their Initial Appearance the following day. At this proceeding, the judge will consider release conditions. HELD WITHOUT BOND The inmate is to remain incarcerated until their Arraignment Hearing. SIGNATURE BOND The inmate will be released if someone is willing to sign for them, and assure they will attend their next court date. CASH BOND The inmate may be released if they can post a monetary amount set by the courts. The bond may be returned to the inmate if they appear at their next court date. CONFINED PRISONER When an inmate is found to be guilty, the courts will order a sentence to be served. The length of the sentence will depend on the severity of the crime and the inmate’s past criminal history. Once an inmate is ordered to incarceration, TOCF staff is responsible for inmate time sheets. Understanding court paperwork gives a Corrections Officer the opportunity to understand the judicial system. Once an inmate is sentenced to TOCF, it is the staff’s responsibility to make sure that we enter how long that inmate has been sentenced. CORRECTIONS SPECIALISTS It is the Corrections Specialists responsibility to maintain inmate’s files, classifications, discipli- nary actions, grievances, and inmate programs. Once the inmate has been to their Initial Ap- pearance, a Corrections Specialist will complete a risk assessment for housing purposes, and to indicate any special needs that an inmate might have. All information will be entered into the Spillman system. 49 Phase V Phase: V Trainee: Module Title: Control/Issue of Razors FTO: PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE: Train- After explanation, demonstration, ee and practice, trainee will properly Train- Train- Per- conduct control/issuance of razors Train- forms ee FTO ee to ensure accountability. ee Suc- Reads Ex- Ex- Ex- Train- cessf / plain plain plain ee ully Re- s & s as s & Prac- (Profi views Demo FTO I certify that the above-named trainee demonstrated profi- Demo tices cienc Task nstrat Demo ciency concerning this task on _____ (date). nstrat y Docu- es nstrat X ______________ FTO es Test ment es X ______________ Trainee Com- plete d) Steps: 1. Gather materials (gloves, razors, Spartan hand held de- vice.) 2. Put on gloves 3. Razors will be examined by a Corrections Officer to en- sure it is intact. 4. Each razor will be issued and be assigned in the Spartan handheld device by scanning the inmates wristband. 5. Each inmate one at a time will receive a razor if wanting one. To ensure correct inmate gets their razor check Spar- tan hand held device for inmates issued. 6. When collecting razors, call one inmate at a time, ensure blade is full and still intact, scan wristband to mark off in the Spartan device the inmates razor is returned. 7. Properly dispose all used razors in a biohazard sharps container. 50 Phase V Escorting Inmates When transporting an inmate, selection of restraint equipment will depend on the security classification of the inmate. Consideration, is also given to the level of anticipated public con- tact, the physical/ mental health of the inmate, displayed inmate behavior, purpose of move- ment, and the inmate’s destination. 1. Inmate’s transported out of the Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections Facility for court appearances or medical care outside of the Corrections Facility will have restraints applied prior to exiting the Corrections Facility and Inmate wristband scanned by Spartan Device to input where inmate is moving to. This will include handcuffs, shackles, and waist belt/ chain. 2. Inmates being moved from general population to Maximum Security will be placed in handcuffs and leg shackles. 3. Male and female inmates will not be moved or cuffed together. 4. Inmate’s will not be allowed to talk to anyone or each other outside the Corrections Facili- ty. 5. Inmate’s will not be allowed to disrespect staff or community members. 6. When transporting a female inmate, one Corrections Officer will also be of the same gen- der. If no female Corrections Officer is on-duty only the shift supervisor can authorize an exception. 7. All transports will call in beginning and ending mileage to Police Dispatch. 8. Corrections Officer to Inmate Ratio— As a rule, when inmates are transported outside the Corrections Facility, a 2:1 Officer to Inmate ratio will be maintained. 9. Community Service — Inmates assigned to community service will be selected based on a “minimum security” status. Inmates in this category do not require the same ratio, when it pertains only to work detail. In this case, the ratio will be 1:4, Officer to Inmates. NOTE: If unsure, refer to Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections Facility General Orders Transportation, or ask the shift supervisor to clarify. 51 TOHONO O’ODHAM NATION CORRECTIONS FACILITY FTO WEEKLY OBSERVATION REPORT Phase II PHASE V TRAINEE: FTO: DATE: TIME: INSTRUCTIONS: Rate observed behavior with reference to the scale below.

Phase V —Completion FTO: Date: Reviewed: Trainee Date: Reviewed: FTO Supervisor Date: Reviewed: Administrator Date: 53 Phase VI Quasi-solo Performance During Phase VI of the Corrections Field Training Program, the Corrections Trainee Officer will operate in a quasi-solo capacity. They will be required to demonstrate their ability to coor- dinate daily activities within the Tohono O’odham Nation Corrections Facility without the su- pervision of their Field Training Officer. The FTO will not interfere in the CTO’s perfor- mance except in the following: 1. Physical danger is imminent 2. To avoid embarrassment to the Training Officer or Corrections program 3. Immoral, illegal, or unethical conduct 4. Threats to Facility security 5. Violations of inmate rights If the Field Training Officer believes that the CTO has gained sufficient skill and knowledge to operate as a solo Corrections Officer, they will make the recommendation to the Field Train- ing Program Supervisor that the CTO should be release to a solo Officer capacity. This rec- ommendation, as well as, the evaluation forms plus a verbal exam from the Program Supervi- sor will deter whether or not the CTO will be released from the Field Training Program to work as a solo Corrections Officer. Job Shadow Central Control Also, during this Phase, the CTO will spend one (1) - eight (8) hour shift job shadowing the Central Control Room. This is for knowledge of the way the Central Control Room operates and how the daily Corrections activities flow in conjunction with the Central Control Room. 54 Remedial Training Guidelines Remedial Training A CTO who performs less than acceptable levels may be assigned a “1” or “2” for a particular job performance. The Field Training Officer is under an obligation to retrain the CTO and re -evaluate the CTO’s performance. All remedial training will be documented and forward to the Field Training Program Supervisor. If at any point during this program, it is determined that the Corrections Trainee does not demonstrate the ability to function as an effective Corrections Officer, or fails to maintain their overall performance in each of the evaluated job behaviors at or above the minimal acceptable level, the program will: 1. Provide remedial training with a new Field Training Officer 2. Terminate the Corrections Trainee’s employment for failure to meet minimum perfor- mance standards. If the Field Training Officer (FTO) feels that remedial training is necessary, it is the FTO’s responsibility to write an official memorandum and attach an evaluation. The memorandum should contain the following: 1. Job behavior being corrected 2. Why the training is necessary 3. Time frame for remedial training If the CTO’s performance is still below minimum standards, recommendations for termination may be necessary. 55 Field Training Program Completion Letter FIELD TRAINING OFFICER PROGRAM COMPLETION LETTER Correctional Officer, ______________________________, has completed the Field Training Officer Program, which includes the following criteria: Full Booking Releasing Inmates Cell Searches Strip Searches Transporting Inmates Medication Receiving Medication Distribution Medication Log Inmate Yard Sweat Lodge Correctional Officer, ______________________________, understands that he/she does not need any remedial training. __________________________________ _______________ Field Training Officer Date __________________________________ ________________ Correctional Training Officer Date __________________________________ ________________ Shift Supervisor Date __________________________________ ________________ Field Training Officer Supervisor Date 56 Forms Daily Observation Forms Starts with Day One of Phase II Completed by FTO & submitted to the Program Supervisor EVERYDAY 25 Forms are Attached to be used (Begins on Page 58-107) Phase Evaluations Completed by FTO and submitted to Program Supervisor WEEKLY Located within the corresponding Phases Report Exemplar Evaluations Completed by the Program Supervisor WEEKLY Placed in personnel file with all training evaluations and documents Used as a learning tool, in regards to report writing 5 Forms are Attached to be used (Begins
