SCRAM House Arrest

General Guidelines for House Arrest Equipment Assignment

After adding the equipment information in SCRAMNET, the next step is to install the SCRAM CAM or SCRAM House Arrest bracelet on the client’s ankle and assign the equipment for monitoring.

To complete the installation and assignment process efficiently, there are a few steps you can perform and verify prior to meeting with the client and before installing the bracelet on the client’s ankle.

  • Participant Agreement: Print two copies of the agreement. Review the information provided on the Participant Agreement form with the client and have them sign both copies. One copy is for your records and the second copy is for the client.
  • SCRAM CAM or House Arrest Bracelet: Before installing the bracelet on the client’s ankle, you can install the bracelet’s components and faceplate. Do not let the battery sit in the bracelet for more than 24 hours before installing the bracelet on the client’s ankle.
