The cost of medical care is an increasingly heavy burden on the financial resources of the county, and it’s tax payers.

As permitted by A.R.S. 31-121 Section B “the sheriff may establish procedures to recover from the inmate the cost of providing the inmate with necessary food. The cost to the inmate shall not exceed two dollars per day. All meal costs recovered from the inmate shall be used for meal preparation or to improve meal quality.” How do I visit someone in Jail?

A family member in custody may submit a form releasing property to a specific person. Property will be released once and only once.

If my family member has a complaint, how do they try to solve it? Complaints are first taken to the Officer assigned for each shift. If the Officer cannot satisfactorily solve the complaint, the Inmate will need to request to see a Supervisor. When a Supervisor cannot resolve the issue, the next step is to file a Grievance through the Grievance Procedure. Instructions on how to do this properly are placed on the bulletin boards in each Housing Unit. Complaints of a frivolous nature will not be accepted. What happens if our family member gets in trouble while in jail? Will they have to stay there longer? Disciplinary does not add more time unless they are charged criminally. If they do not follow rules within the facility they will lose privileges such as visitation, commissary and possible segregation from other Inmates. What if my family member has an appointment with an outside physician while in jail? Due to security reasons, outside appointments are cancelled and jail medical provider reviews medical issues. What happens if a family member in jail is indigent “without money?” No inmate is denied medical care because of a record of non-payment or current inability to pay. What is the estimated time for an inmate’s release? Releases can take up to 4 hours from the time the release paper work is received from the court and/or bond is posted. How can my family members contact me? Inmates are allowed to use the phones in their housing areas from 0700 until 930pm unless restrictions are put in place due to security reasons.
