Program Coordinator II, Massachusetts Department of Correction, Milford, Massachusetts Developing New Tools for Food Safety in Correctional Facilities Room 103C A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) analysis found that foodborne outbreaks in correctional settings were nearly six times as large as those in other settings, placing a large burden on staff and healthcare systems. Many of the outbreaks identified recurring, but preventable, food safety issues. To better understand needs, CDC conducted a survey of correctional workers; over 500 responses were received, providing valuable insight on food safety practices. Using this data, CDC is working with corrections and public health partners to build model food safety practices tailored to corrections. This workshop will review the survey data, introduce the model practices and solicit input on additional tools and resources. Learning Objectives: • Participants will be able to understand the burden and impact of foodborne outbreaks in correctional settings. • Participants will be able to reflect on food safety knowledge, attitudes and practices from correctional workers and how these might translate to areas for support. • Participants will be able to consider the benefits and challenges of corrections-specific food safety tools and resources.
