The term "corrections" is widely used to refer to programs, services, facilities, and organizations responsible for the management of people who have been convicted of criminal offenses. These may include prisons, jails, halfway houses, probation and parole services, and other related programs and services. Law enforcement and courts are focused on different aspects of the criminal justice system, while "penitentiary" refers specifically to a type of prison focused on rehabilitation and repentance, which is not the sole focus of all correctional facilities. "Decisions" is too vague and doesn't specifically refer to any aspect of managing people who have been convicted of criminal offenses.
