DHS Officials Continue Efforts To Encourage More Employee COVID-19 Vaccinations At State Facilities

IPR File The Glenwood Resource Center is one of DHS s six facilities where nearly 44 percent of employees have declined the COVID-19 vaccine. DHS officials say they are trying different approaches to encourage more employees to get vaccinated at their six facilities. The Iowa Department of Human Services officials said they will continue efforts to encourage more employees at the six DHS facilities to get the COVID-19 vaccine, as vaccination rates remain stagnant. According to state data, 36 percent of employees at DHS’s six facilities declined the COVID-19 shot as of last Friday. That’s the same percent that had declined it five weeks before.

Iowa prison staffing before Anamosa killings was near lowest in 30 years

But the 13-acre, 146-year-old maximum security prison is so thinly staffed that there are often no guards available to float between units in case of trouble, Baker said. During the day, Anamosa s prison yard holds hundreds of men, sent to prison because of the severity of their crimes or their predicted propensity for violence.  Yet many days that yard is guarded only from above, by armed officers in security towers. Often, Baker said, there just aren t enough correctional officers available to conduct patrols. On March 23 something happened that workers there had dreaded for years: A correctional officer, Robert McFarland, and a nurse in the prison infirmary, Lorena Schulte, came to work that day but never went home.
