PATUXENT INSTITUTION

Joseph Henneberry, Director

Jessup, MD 20794 799-3400

Authorized in 1951, fatuxent Institution opened
in 1955 under administration by the Department of
Correction (Chapter 476, Acts of 1951). The Institu-
tion became an autonomous agency under the control
of the Board ofEatuxent Institution in 1961 (Chapter
629, Acts of 1961). In 1970, the Institution was made
part of the Department of Public Saiecy and Correc-
tional Services (Chapter 401, Acts of 1970).
Patuxent's status has continued as an institution
separate from the Division of Correction, and it has
retained its own board.
Patuxent Institution provides treatment and
rehabilitation programs and services for eligible
prisoners. The Institution offers medical,

psychiatric, psychological and social casework ser-
vices, as well as academic, vocational, recreational
and religious services. Treatment also is provided for
individuals on preparole and parole status.
The Commissioner of Correction may refer a
prisoner to Eatuxent Institution for evaluation when
so recommended by the sentencing court, the State's
Attorney of the jurisdiction in which the person was
last sentenced, or the staff of the Division of Correc-
tion. The Commissioner also may refer prisoners in
response to their applications. Each prisoner referred
is transferred to the Institution for evaluation by a
team consisting of at least three professional
employees of the Institution, including at least one
psychiatrist, one psychologist, and one sodal worker
or behavioral scientist. The evaluation team assembles
and reviews relevant information and examines the
prisoner. The team then determines whether the in-
dividual is eligible and states its findings in a report to
the Director. If not eligible, the prisoner is returned to
the Division of Correction to continue his sentence. If
eligible, the prisoner remains at Patuxent Institution
for treatment.
To provide for continuation of treatment, the
Institution operates a community clinic in
metropolitan Baltimore. Here, clinic staff offer
psychotherapy job and family counseling, and so-
cial casework services for individuals and families.
At the community clinic, the Institution operates a
halfway house. This residence provides housing and
supportive services for parolees who have no sup-
port in the community. Some work-release inmates
also live in the halfway hnuse-
Appoinred by the Secretary of Public Safety and
Correctional Services, the Director is chief ad-
ministrator of the Institution. Of three Associate
Directors, one must be a psychiatrist and one a be-
havioral scientist. They assist primarily in diagnosis and
treatment. The third Associate Director assists in the
field of custody By law, the staff also must include at
least three additional psychiatrists or clinical
psychologists, at least four trained sodal workers, a
physician, and a dentist (Code 1957, Art. 31B).
