Topic: Security Central / Pat Down Gloves

New Officer here and I apologize if the subject has been covered before but….
Do YOU wear “Pat Down” gloves or the standard issue medical type vinyl/rubber “medical” exam gloves ?

Any opinions on “the best” to wear for protection during pat downs and cell searches?

Good day all. Im new to Corrections, new to this site and thankfull that I have found it. I’m working for the State of Nebraska and as a midlife career change, am finding this to be quite a challenging career (so far). I’m in my 3 rd week at the academy and have learned SO much, it’s incredible. All of your informative comments are TRULY appreciated by this new officer!
I will throw out one question to the group. I’m sure I will learn this over time but any “head start” info would be appreciated.
Prison “slang” ? What are some phrases or words new officers should learn and remember early in their career ?
