Cell Guardian Latest Insights & Stories
Reversing the Rise of Suicide in Correctional Facilities
Challenge with Monitoring Correctional Medical Facilities
Most people will agree that incarcerated patients should have the right to privacy in medical settings, especially during exams. Prison and jail medical facilities are meant to be safe for both the patients receiving exams, treatments and recovery and the clinical staff providing the services and care. Using live feed mounted cameras, or even body cameras, impedes on a patient’s privacy in terms of HIPAA standards and personal privacy.
Emerging Technology: How AI Is Transforming Inmate Monitoring and Safety
Correctional facilities across the United States are facing increasing safety and operational challenges. Rising suicide rates, inmate-on-inmate violence, assaults on staff, medical emergencies, and contraband smuggling place constant pressure on jails and prisons—often with fewer staff and limited resources.
