This release comes just a few weeks after several safety incidents took place at the departments’ Indian River facility.
Body Worn Cameras – With assistance from the Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, they will be begin finalizing the training and use of body worn cameras at their Indian River facility. They stated as soon as they receive their full supply of cameras, they will plan for use at their other two facilities as well.
OC Spray – A multi-disciplinary committee will convene next week to review and revise the current use-of-force policy and use-of-force continuum, according to the release. Once the finalized policy is approved, and the training curriculum, an implementation plan will be developed. The release said that research shows in environments such as these, OC spray is much safer than physical restraint, with the hope of reducing injuries to both staff and youth.
Amy Ast, the director of the Department of Youth Services, hopes that this will also “decrease the occurrences of youth earning additional time and additional charges for engaging in acts of violence.” She said these tools are not meant to replace intervention strategies, but to equip employees with the skills to recognize when these tools are appropriate.
