MAPLE GROVE, Minn., Aug. 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sherburne County Sheriff's Office (Elk River, Minn.) has joined forces with GUARDIAN RFID to modernize the way it manages its inmates. This fall, Sherburne Co. Jail is embedding GUARDIAN RFID technology to mitigate risk and improve operational efficiency by:
Tracking Inmates with GUARDIAN RFID
Corrections officer logging security checks using SPARTAN, an ultra-rugged Android device from GUARDIAN RFID.
- Managing, monitoring, and tracking nearly 700 inmates in custody, the second largest detention facility in the Twin Cities metro area by inmate population, by deploying hundreds of GUARDIAN RFID Tags™ and Clincher® X-Wide RFID Wristbands for visual and electronic inmate identification, tracking movements and transports, and automating headcounts and inmate activity logging.
