FYI…AW portion for page 10 regarding SW cell assignment.

Guidance was sent to the Lieutenants regarding keying of suicide watch bed assignments after hours. The Lieutenants were instructed that upon placing an inmate on suicide watch, they are responsible for contacting C&A and providing the cell assignment. Additionally, the Lieutenant will run a PP30 (Population Monitoring Roster) with the selection category for suicide watch. The Lieutenant will email the roster to the Captain, as he will be responsible for verifying that each inmate is in the appropriate cell. This verification process will ensure inmates placed on suicide watch are keyed into inaccurate bed assignments and will eliminate inmates being keyed into the same cell.

Additionally, the Lieutenants were instructed to contact the Captain and on-call Psychology staff when the need for suicide watch placement is determined after hours. Psychology staff have been instructed to contact the warden upon receiving said notification. After consultation with the warden, psychology staff will designate whether a staff or inmate companion will be assigned. Psychology staff will in turn inform the Shift Lieutenant of this determination.
