Rules for Visitation

• The Preble County Jail will provide two options for video visitation to all Preble County Jail Inmates. This will provide for two-way video/voice conversation. 
• Our on-site visitation area is in the main lobby of the sheriff’s office and open seven days a week, twenty-four hours per day. 
• Visits shall only be restricted if the jail administrator or designee determines that a visit is a threat to safety, security, or in the best interest of the jail. The jail administrator or designee shall document restrictions in writing. 
• Video visitation is recorded and may be monitored by jail staff. (Excluding Attorney/Clergy)
• The Preble County Jail shall provide visitation hours that provide inmates with the opportunity to visit family and friends. Visitors must schedule online to visit an inmate. A schedule of visiting hours is posted in the Sheriff’s Office Main Lobby and above in the Inmate Handbook. 
• Visitors may schedule visits up to two weeks in advance but must schedule at least 24 hours prior to the visit. Scheduling can be done at home on www.icsolutions.com or in the sheriff’s office lobby on the registration computer. 

• Visitors have the option to do two on-site visits a week with no fee or an unlimited number of off-site visits with a fee. Off-site visits can take place from a computer with a camera or by using a mobile device with a camera. Each visit on-site or off-site will be in length of 25 minutes each.
• Visitors can be logged into their visit 10 minutes prior to the visit. (This will not start the visit early). 
• If a visitor is more than 15 minutes late to their visit, their visit will automatically be cancelled. If a visitor is less than 15 minutes late, they will only get the remaining time left of their visit to visit. The visit does not start when the visitor and/or inmate log on.
• The Preble County Jail will maintain a record of visitors including date, visitor name, inmate visited and length of the visit on the ICS Enforcer. 
• Visitors will be required to have their visitor P.I.N. to be able to log onto their visit. 
• If a visit is cancelled by the inmate, the visitor will receive a cancellation email. If a visit is cancelled by the facility, the visitor will receive a cancellation email explaining why the visit was cancelled. 
• When circumstances prevent visits from occurring during normal visiting hours, special visits may be allowed at times and under conditions as approved by the jail administrator or designee.
• No in person or contact visits with family and/or friends are permitted.

Conversations in visitation may be monitored and recorded.
