We would like to recognize a correctional officer for their quick response, professionalism, and dedication during a recent life-threatening medical emergency within the jail.

When faced with a serious and stressful situation, this officer remained calm, acted quickly, and relied on their training to provide immediate assistance and help ensure that the individual received the necessary medical care.

Correctional officers face unpredictable situations every day, and moments like this demonstrate the importance of being prepared to respond when every second counts.

We are proud of this officer for demonstrating courage, compassion, and professionalism under pressure. Their quick actions and commitment to the safety and well-being of those in their care are truly commendable.

This week, in honor of National Correctional Officers and Employees Week, our Lieutenant Dj Hart and his wife Heather Hart took a moment to recognize the hard work, dedication, and professionalism of our correctional officers with a small token of appreciation.

While the gesture may have been simple, the meaning behind it was significant. Every day, correctional staff show commitment, strength, and compassion while maintaining the safety and security of our facility and community. Their efforts often go unseen, but they never go unnoticed.

Thank you to all correctional officers and staff for the sacrifices you make, the challenges you face, and the professionalism you display day in and day out. Your dedication does not go unrecognized.

Happy National Corrections Officer Week to all who proudly serve behind the walls. 💙
