years remaining on it, (2) has an intellectual defi-
ciency or emotional unbalance, (3) is likely to re-
spond favorably to the programs and services
provided at Patuxent Institution, and (4) can be
better rehabilitated through those programs and
services than by other incarceration. Persons
may be referred for evaluation by the Commis-
sioner of Correction upon recommendation of
the sentencing court, upon application by the
State's Attorney of the jurisdiction in which the
person was last sentenced, upon application of
the person himself, or upon recommendation of
his staff. Each person so referred is transferred
to the Institution for evaluation by an evaluation
team consisting of at least three professional
employees of the Institution, including at least
one psychiatrist, one psychologist, and one social
worker or behavioral scientist. The evaluation
team assembles and reviews all available relevant
information about the person and conducts its
own examination of that individual. Based on its
own examination and the information assembled,
the team determines whether this individual is an
eligible person and states its findings in a report
to the Director. If the individual is determined
not to be an eligible person, he is returned to
the Division of Correction to continue his sen-
tence. If the individual is determined to be an el-
igible person, he remains at Patuxent Institution
for treatment.
The Director is the Chief Administrative Offi-
cer of the Institution. There are three Associate
Directors, one of whom must be a psychiatrist
and one of whom must be a behavioral scientist.
These two Associate Directors assist primarily in
discharging the diagnostic and treatment
functions of the Institution. The third Associate
Director assists primarily in discharging the cus-
todial function of the Institution. By statute, the
staff must also include at least three additional
psychiatrists or clinical psychologists, at least
four trained social workers, a physician, and a
dentist. The Institution offers complete medical,
psychiatric, psychological, and social casework
services. There is a complete program of academ-
ic, vocational, recreational, and religious services.
Treatment services are also provided for
individuals on pre-parole and parole status. All
such programs are directly under the administra-
tion of the Institution and are supervised by the
same staff members who worked with the inmate
while he was at the Institution. To provide for
continuation of treatment in these programs, the
Institution operates a community clinic in Metro-
politan Baltimore. In addition to continued psy-
chotherapy, the clinic staff also provides job and
family counseling and social casework services for
the individual and his family. In conjunction

with the clinic, the Institution operates a halfway
house at the same location. This residential unit
provides housing and supportive services for
parolees who have inadequate personal or family
resources to support them in the community. Ad-
ditionally, the Institution houses all pre-parole
inmates located on the grounds of the Instituion.
This forty-bed facility is staffed by a trained so-
cial worker and officer-counselor who provide
continuous counseling and supervision.

The Institutional Board of Review was origi-
nally created by Chapter 467, Acts of 1951. The
Board was continued under Chapter 678, Acts of
1977. The Board is composed of the Director, the
three Associate Directors, the Professor of the
University of Maryland School of Law, the Pro-
fessor of the University of Baltimore School of
Law, and one of the two members of the Board
of Patuxent Institution who are members of the
Maryland Bar, and a sociologist appointed by the
Board from the faculty of an accredited institu-
tion of higher education in Maryland. The Board
of Review is charged with reviewing at least once
each year the status of each eligible person and
his progress under a written treatment plan. The
Board of Review makes appropriate written
recommendations for the future treatment and
status of the person following each review. The
Board is authorized to grant leave or parole to el-
igible persons if it concludes that such leave or
parole will not impose an unreasonable risk to so-
ciety and will assist in the treatment and rehabili-
tation of the eligible person. The Board may at-
tach reasonable conditions to the leave or parole
and may revoke the status if it finds that the per-
son has violated such conditions. If the person
has successfully completed three years on parole
without violation and the Board of Review con-
cludes he is safe to be permanently released, it
may petititon the court to suspend the remaining
sentence under conditions the court deems appro-
priate or to vacate the remaining sentence. If in
its review the Board concludes that the person is
