Abstract
The event detection system and method employs at least one biometric capture device or mechanism disposed within a controlled-environment area configured to capture biometrics of residents of the controlled-environment facility within the controlled-environment area. The system also identifies the conditions that define an occurrence of an event. The system monitors the conditions within the facility to detect the conditions associated with an event. The computing system detects such events as delivery of meals, medicines, commissary items, and other goods and services. Such delivery of meals, medicines, and commissary items may be identified by proximity of a resident with personnel or identifying the location of the resident.
