I. Purpose of the Policy
The purpose of this order is to provide policy and standards for documentation required for the Jail Management System (JMS) and pertinent reports within the Department of Corrections (DOC). #
A. Policy
1. The DOC has computer systems designed to record pertinent inmate-related information. 2. JMS is the computer system used by the DOC to make computer entries regarding inmate information, movement, activities, and incidents. 3. The DOC uses reports and forms that require personnel’s signatures and completion within certain timeframes. 4. Personnel shall utilize the most up-to-date forms available in accordance with Order 581 (Written Directives). #
B. Entries
1. Entries made into computer programs, software, and/or on paper documents may be considered public record. Personnel shall ensure that all entries: a. Are factual, brief, and to the point; b. Include correct spelling and grammar; and c. Contain appropriate, accurate, and required information. 2. White-out products shall not be used to correct errors on paper documents. One line shall be drawn through the error and the correction entered beside it. 3. When paper inmate rosters are used for documenting inmate movement or activities, only yellow and pink highlighters may be used. No other colored highlighters are acceptable. 4. Personnel shall legibly sign their name and ID number on all documents that require their signature. A stamp shall not be used in place of their signature. #
