Ontario Adult Correction Facility Correction
The Ministry of Public Safety and Corrections operates the following adult facilities:
Correctional Centers Prison sentencing centers for convicted criminals usually serve a period of detention up to a maximum of 2 years less than a day. Offenders serving prison sentences are eligible for education, counseling and work experience programs.
Prison and Detention Centers Older prisons, usually smaller, institutions originally established by other districts or municipalities. Larger detention centers, more modern facilities built to serve the needs of some areas.
Prisons and Detention Centers serve as entry points into the institutional system. They hold:
- People in remand (waiting for traces, penalties or other processes)
- Offenders who are subject to short-term penalties (approximately 60 days or less)
- Offenders await a transfer to a federal or provincial penitentiary.
Both types of maximum security facilities.
Care Centers The Maintenance Center provides specialized and intensive care for motivated offenders with clearly identified issues related to substance abuse, false sexual behavior, impulse control and anger management.
The facility is managed by professional clinical professionals employed by, or under contracts for, the Ministry of Public Safety and Correctional Services.

Employee
Most personnel with provincial institutions are correctional staff assigned to care, custody and control of offenders imprisoned in prisons and provincial detention centers. Other employees include: Conditional parole officers, program facilitators, psychologists, doctors, registered nurses, classification officers, etc.
Correctional staff working in provincial institutions are designated as Peace Officers under Section 10 of the Correction and Conditional Release Act and Canada's Criminal Code.

- Maintain order and discipline within the institution
- Enforce applicable institutional rules, rules and laws
- Carrying a prisoner to court, other correctional facilities, or to a community for medical purposes
- Tactical response to ongoing emergencies such as riots, hostage taking, or other major crises
After the officer moves to the supervisory role, which starts at the rank of Sergeant, the uniform color of the shirt changes from light blue to white.
The Deputy Inspector of the Institution is the first rank in government. There are several Deputy Inspectors in each institution depending on the size of the facility.
The Superintendent is the head of the institution.
