COVID-19 response

The Montana Department of Corrections takes the threat associated with COVID-19 seriously and is dedicated to protecting the health and safety of its staff, the individuals under its supervision, and members of the public.

How are we doing that?

Resources for DOC COVID-19 response

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is the department’s guiding resource for information about COVID-19. Our Clinical Services staff refer to the CDC for all protocol ranging from the proper way to disinfect surfaces to caring for infected individuals.

The DOC also relies heavily upon the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services and Montana Disaster and Emergency Services to assist with formulating appropriate responses to the threat of the virus and to remain up to date with the developing situation.

In addition, the Federal Bureau of Prisons provides the DOC with guidance specific to managing COVID-19 in custodial settings.
