Cell Extraction Research Paper
The Cell Extraction
In the dangerous occupation of a correctional professional the “cell extraction” is something that will happen. People can get angry if they don’t get their way. I say people because inmates are people, that got into trouble. As a correctional professional I can use the “cell extraction” to move an incompliant inmate from one cell to a more secured cell. This is something I am good at. I have to be. It is my job.
The first time that I required an extraction team to suit up, the time was 2:00am. I was conducting count. When I got to the top of the stairs the inmate was standing in his cell in front of the bars with a cup in his hands. As I passed he threw the contents of the cup.

This is one tool that is available for us to use. The chemical agent that the Department of Corrections uses is called Freeze Plus. It is a fogging and direct spray chemical agent. When using the Freeze Plus, we spray the inmate across the eyebrows allowing the spray to get into the inmate’s eyes, any exposure on the face there will be eye irritation, and this is the other tool that is available.
After the deployment of either the Taser or the Freeze, we have the bar box operator open the cell door allowing the shield and the rest of the extraction team into the cell and gain compliance of the inmate. This is the most dangerous moment in a cell extraction because all hell breaks loose. Once the extraction team has gained compliance escort the inmate into the office and allow health services to do an examination on the inmate
