The Putnam County Correctional Facility has again earned accreditation from the National Commission on Correctional Health Care and is in compliance with their Standards for Health Services in Jails. The correctional facility underwent a rigorous on-site survey. An experienced physician and other experts in correctional health care surveyed the site for compliance with standards on continuous quality improvement, safety, infection control, chronic care, personnel and training, medical and mental health care, health records, and legal issues. The facility was first accredited in 2005. Accreditation is a voluntary process that Putnam has successfully completed since then.
