Prison staff often have to defuse hostile situations. Reveal body cameras encourage positive behaviour and offer an independent witness of events when needed.
Prison officers frequently face aggressive and violent behaviour, as well as verbal abuse from inmates, whilst on duty. Recent government statistics reveal that, over a 12-month period, there were 8,516 recorded assaults on prison officers in England and Wales. This equates to an average of 23 attacks per day, and a 16% increase from the previous year.
Meanwhile, attacks in women’s prisons are at an all-time high, with 785 incidents during that same period.
Our body-worn cameras with a front-facing screen have proven to successfully reduce the number of complaints against both officers and prisoners alike by providing a true account of interactions. The transparent nature of recording when in a hostile situation affords extra protection for everyone involved.
When combined with our DEMS 360 software for evidence management, facilities can be sure that the truth is secured for use as evidence when required.
How Reveal Body Cameras Support Prison Officers
Deterring and De-escalating Violence: Reveal body cameras help moderate inmate behaviour by deterring and de-escalating violence and aggression. Our signature front-facing screen is proven to have a calming effect on those being recorded.
Acting as an Independent Witness: By capturing first-hand video and audio recordings, Reveal body cameras enhance transparency, trust, and accountability between officers and inmates.
Boosting Officer Confidence: The use of body-worn cameras improves officer confidence as they feel valued and supported by having adequate safety tools, contributing to their overall health and wellbeing.
Enhancing Record Accuracy and Security: Body-worn video provides a true and complete picture of events, which can help resolve disputes and protect officers from false accusations.
