CORRECTIONS BUREAU

The Corrections Bureau is comprised of four divisions: Administrative Services, Community Services, Inmate Services, and Security Operations. The Frederick County Adult Detention Center is a full-service correctional facility that handles traditional incarcerations and imprisonment for offenders either awaiting trial or sentenced. Sentenced offenders are incarcerated at this local correctional facility for a maximum of 18 months. For any sentence greater than 18 months, the offender will be sent to the Maryland Department of Public Safety/Division of Corrections.

Alternatives to incarceration often deliver better long-term results for the community and the offender if a cycle of recidivism can be broken. The Corrections Bureau, working with the Court system, administers pretrial services, home detention, alternative sentencing/community service and work release. Administrative Division The Administrative Division entails four sections: Fiscal, Technology, Accreditation, and Training. Fiscal Services is responsible for the management of all funds to include the budget, procurement, inmate funds, inmate canteen, and medical billings. Technology is an ever-changing field, and this section is responsible for all computers, video surveillance, inmate telephone system, digital archiving of records, forms, electronic door control, inmate tablets and video visitation, as well as any other technology utilized. The Accreditation Section is responsible for monitoring compliance with local, state, and national standards and laws. This section is also responsible for inmate disciplinary and inmate records. The Training Section is responsible for our in-house academy and in-service training, as well as training from outside agencies. The Training Section also acts as the liaison with County Maintenance for the facility. Security Division The Security Division provides overall security, custody, and confinement of all incarcerates remanded to the custody of the Detention Center by the judicial system. The division is organized into three primary units: Security Operations/Day Shifts, Security Operations/Night Shifts, and the Special Operations Unit. Special Operations consists of inmate transportation, Central Booking, video bond review, the Emergency Response Team and other safety functions such as oversite of the body scanner. The Frederick County Sheriff's Office participates in the 287(g) program through the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement which started April 11, 2008.
