To provide such care, custody and control, officers must tour assigned areas (which requires them in some cases to periodically climb approximately 10-15 stairs); observe inmate activity in person and on closed-circuit monitors; identify inmates who have behavioral, medical or other problems so that appropriate safety and security measures may be taken; and perform general security duties to prevent escape, disorder, rule infractions and harm to inmates, visitors and staff. The general security duties performed by officers require them to search inmates, visitors, cells and other areas for weapons and contraband; monitor and regulate inmate and staff movement; maintain and record inmate counts, cell assignments and other pertinent information; escort inmates within and outside the institution; use and maintain keys and other equipment; and supervise inmate work details.

Depending on assignment, they must be able to respond to such situations by employing emergency equipment, restraints, weapons (including, in certain limited circumstances, firearms) and force when necessary. They must also lift equipment, perform assisted lifting of inmates, exercise sound judgment, and work under pressure in stressful situations.
