NYM 5500.14a Inmate Accountability Page 2 COUNTS: The utmost precaution should be utilized when staff are conducting a count. Staff are to A. ensure they are observing a real person and not a "DUMMY". When conducting a count, the staff members will ensure that they personally observed breathing human flesh for each inmate counted. All counts shall be double counted by two staff members and both staff shall print and sign their names to the count slip. Inmate details of more than five inmates shall also be double counted. Official counts will be conducted at the following times: 12:00 AM 3:00 AM 5:00 AM 10:00 AM (Weekends and Holidays, only) 4:00 PM 10:00 PM The master count sheet is obtained using Sentry transaction PPE1. In the event that SENTRY is down, the Control Room Officer shall prepare an error free master count sheet (Attachment 1). At a minimum, two officers will count each unit. One officer will count while the second officer stands in a position to observe the movements of inmates. Upon the completion of the first count, the officers will change positions and the second officer will count. At the end of the second count, the count will be called into the Control Room for acceptance. There will be no movement of inmates during the count. While counting, officers will not permit anything short of an emergency to distract them. The officers who conducted the count will remain in the area until the count has been cleared by Control. When counting at night, flashlights should be used judiciously, but enough light should be shown on the inmate as to leave no doubt that the officer is counting a breathing living human body. LOCK-DOWN ACCOUNTABILITY CHECK: A lock-down accountability check will be conducted at this institution a minimum of once per month. The accountability check will be announced over the public address system at a random time and date with no prior notification to the various departments. This procedure is used to determine if inmates are authorized to be in the respective areas: Although not designed to be strictly a head count, every effort should be made to arrive at a total institution head count. If this is not accomplished within a reasonable length of time, the Warden may resume normal operations with the understanding there is an accountability problem which needs to be corrected. Upon hearing the announcement for an accountability check, staff will secure all entrance and exits. No inmate movement will be allowed following the announcement.
