Abstract
A system and method of determining/checking the number of times an inmate in a correctional facility traverses the food line includes the inmate wearing a body-worn device. In some embodiments, the body-worn device includes location detection so that a location of the inmate is constantly monitored and when the inmate traverses the food line more than an allotted number of times (e.g., one time), an alert is generated. In other embodiments, the body-worn device includes an identification device (e.g., an RFID or a low-power transmitter), such that the body-worn device is detectable by detection devices positioned in the food line of the correctional facility and when the inmate traverses the food line more than once (or more than an allowed number of times) an alert is generated.
