As former practitioners, we understand that smaller jails and jails with limited budgets need the same safety and inmate management provisions as the larger facilities—but without all the extras—and at an investment that makes sense. That’s why we created our Decision Tree Automation solution that includes everything you need—and nothing you don’t—at a price you can afford.
No matter the facility size, classification is the cornerstone of sound housing decisions and safer facilities. Our Decision Tree Automation solution includes the automated Northpointe Decision Tree tool that is court-tested and taught by the National Institute of Corrections. It also includes daily reclassification reminders, paperless record keeping, and a variety of necessary reports at your fingertips so that your facility can exceed requirements, become safer and more efficient, and mitigate liability. Decision Tree Automation customers can also choose to add on incident and alternative screenings functions as well.
WHAT IT DOES
Our Decision Tree Automation solution takes the guesswork out of inmate housing decisions and basic management, saving you time and providing peace of mind. The functionality includes:
- Decision Tree: Our Northpointe Decision Tree instrument guides your staff through the classification process by answering just a few Yes/No questions for fast and accurate classification. The system helps staff determine the appropriate housing and supervision levels for each inmate based on established criteria. This ensures consistency in decision-making, reducing the risk of errors and enhancing overall safety.
- Reclassification: A daily dashboard shows the inmates due for reclassification. No calendars or paper tracking necessary–your staff can reclassify inmates on-the-spot, eliminating administrative burdens and reclassification delays.
- Reporting: With a variety of robust reports, you can easily pull a breakdown of inmates by classification level, the amount of overrides, the number of classifications accomplished in a set time period, reclassification data, and more. Paperless record keeping saves your staff time and keeps your facility compliant.
