By Gary F. Cornelius

Correctional officers and managers have one of the most stressful jobs anywhere. This stress often leads to a high rate of illness and turnover. This doesn't have to be true. Stressed Out offers guidance for dealing with the negative stress associated with the job. Cornelius identifies what stress is and teaches strategies to combat it both on and off the job through such techniques as time management, relaxation, diet, and exercise. Describes how the offender and staff members cause stress. Although it is impossible to remove all of the stress from the position, this book provides diet, exercise and coping strategies to effectively manage stress. 200 pages. 2005.
