Corrections

The Department of Corrections is comprised of the Baltimore County Detention Center, the Pre-trial Services Division, Community Corrections Division and the Alternative Sentencing Division. As required by law and with the intention of providing exceptional service, the Department of Corrections ensures its certifications are current, as follows:

• The Department of Corrections is audited and certified as required by the Maryland Commission on Correctional Standards.
• Newly hired correctional staff receives training and certification from the Baltimore County Department of Corrections Entrance Level Training Academy. This academy is certified by the Maryland Police and Correctional Training Commissions.
• Correctional staff receives yearly in-service training on topics such as security functions, firearms, defensive tactics, first aid and CPR/AED.
• The Department of Corrections operates a fully trained and highly qualified Emergency Response Team (ERT). These ERT members are specially trained to respond to emergencies inside and outside the facility.
