Matthew McCaffrey Manager, Central Communications Center The Central Communications Center (CCC) was established on July 6, 2004. The CCC replaced the Incident/Complaint Hotline Unit, which was established in 1994, and was under the Office of the Inspector General. The CCC is a user-friendly call-in center operating 365-days a year, with an emphasis on assisting Department, provider, and grant staff collection, retention, and dissemination of information related to the care, safety, and humane treatment of all youth served by the Department, providers, or grantees. Citizens with complaints related to Department operated facilities and programs can also make reports to the CCC. All reportable incidents as defined in Florida Administrative Code Rule 63F-11, are required to be called into the CCC within 2 hours of the incident occurring or program staff learning of the incident. The CCC prepares a Daily Report of all incidents reported during the previous 24 hours (6:01 a.m. - 6:00 a.m.). This report is distributed to the Secretary and the executive leadership on a daily basis, except on the weekends and holidays. An email notification system immediately alerts predetermined groups of management staff of particular incidents on a daily basis. This rule describes in detail incidents falling under the following seven categories. Escapes/Absconds Incidents Complaints Against Staff Incidents Medical Incidents Mental Health/Substance Abuse Incidents Miscellaneous Incidents Program Disruption Incidents Youth Behavior Incidents Reportable Offenses Some examples of reportable offenses are as follows: On Duty Staff and Juvenile Deaths Staff Felony Arrests Escapes from Secure Facilities Juvenile Injuries Disturbances Display/Use of Deadly Weapon Staff and Juvenile Sexual and Romantic Relationships Theft of State/Juvenile Owned Property Alleged Improper Use of Force CCC FAQs Additional information can be found in the CCC FAQs.
