POLICY

 

 

 

Consistent with K.A.R. 44-7-104 and the procedures established herein, each facility shall establish general orders pertaining to inmate visitation. At a minimum, such general orders shall address: hours of visitation, the facility's schedule of visiting room/area operations, and procedures for processing visitors, assigning space, and length of visiting periods. (ACI 3-4445) Limited available space, personnel constraints, or other substantial reason to justify restricting the number of visitors or length of visits shall be approved by the Deputy Secretary of Facility Management. (ACI 3-4440) When approved by the Deputy Secretary of Facility Management, wardens may establish, through general order, a restricted visitation schedule for specialized inmate populations.

Inmates on Level I, Level II, and Level III may identify one [1] person as a primary visitor to be included in the maximum number of twenty [20] visitors permitted, in accordance with procedure Section II.B. of this policy. Those inmates residing within KDOC facilities on 19 March, 2004 shall not, however, have any visitors removed from their lists as a result of the most recent revisions to K.A.R. 44-7-104 affecting total visitors allowed and the method of counting them. Such inmates shall, however, become subject to those revisions should they be released from a KDOC facility and be subsequently returned as a violator or as a new court commitment. Inmates in a KDOC facility as of March 19, 2004 who have more than 20 persons approved to visit may not add another person to their visiting list until the total number of visitors falls below 20.

Inmates who are married by license or common law, per IMPP 01-126, shall not list any person as a primary visitor other than their spouse. Unmarried inmates may declare any person as their primary visitor, consistent with the following criteria: must be at least eighteen (18) years of age and may not be listed as the primary visitor for any other inmate. Application and verification of all persons designated as primary visitors shall be in accordance with Section I. of this policy. Inmates may remove a designated primary visitor from their Approved Visitors List, per provisions of Section II.B., however a change of the primary visitor shall not be made more often than every six (6) months.

All procedures and provisions for visitation, consistent with this IMPP and facility rules, shall be applicable and extended to inmates and their primary visitors.

Except when precluded due to a substantiated security risk, sound security practices, and/or other inmate management considerations, inmate visitation shall permit an informal environment, which permits face- to-face communication. (ACI 3-4441)

In order ensure that detailed information is available to inmates for notification of their family and friends regarding the visitation procedures at the respective KDOC facilities, each facility warden or designee shall be responsible to develop written information regarding the facility’s location, visitation program and additional information as may be useful to the inmates’ visitors. Procedures shall be developed to ensure that the written information is provided to each inmate within 24-hours of his or her arrival at the facility. It shall be the inmate’s responsibility to provide this information to persons from whom they wish to receive visits.

Page 2 of 10, IMPP 10-113

Effective 07-12-13

The written information shall include, but not be limited to:

The facility’s address and phone number, directions to the facility, and information about local transportation;

The days and hours of visitation, per the visiting schedule (Section V.);

The approved dress code and identification requirements for visitors;

Authorized items that visitors may have in the visiting room or that they may give to inmates;

Special rules for children; and,

Conditions for special visits, per Section VIII of this IMPP. (ACI 3-4441-1)

The procedures for inmate visiting privileges for recent admissions and inmates without approved visiting lists shall ensure consistency with the provisions of the offender Privilege and Incentive Level System, per IMPP 11-101. Visitation privileges shall be determined by the incentive level assigned to each inmate in the following manner:

Intake Level

Inmates assigned to the Intake Level shall be limited to visits from attorneys,

 

clergy, and law enforcement.

Level I

Inmates assigned to Level I shall be limited to visits from attorneys, clergy, law

 

enforcement, a primary visitor, and immediate family members.

Levels II & III

Inmates assigned to Levels II and III shall be allowed visits from any approved

 

visitors per the provisions of this IMPP.

Lists of persons requested by the inmate and approved by the warden, once established, shall be transferable from facility to facility and shall remain in effect unless revised per the inmate's request or administrative cause. Conditions for special visits, as authorized by K.A.R. 44-7-104, shall be established within facility procedures. (ACI 3-4442)

Prior to approval of visitors, designated facility officials shall provide potential visitors and, on request, other interested parties information and instructions regarding the facilities order on visitation and the Department's policy on searches and control of contraband. Where there is reasonable suspicion that a visitor is in possession of contraband items, the warden or warden's designee may demand that the visitor submit to a search of the visitor's person, in accordance with K.A.R. 44-7-104 and IMPP 12-115. The visitor may refuse to submit to such search. In that event, the visitor may be denied contact visiting privileges, or access to, or removed, or permanently barred from the facility. Wardens shall establish alternative steps, when appropriate, to preserve visiting privileges although violation of statutes, regulations, and/or facility rules shall be cause for the termination of a visit or barring of a visitor from KDOC facilities.

The visiting program at each facility shall be under the direct supervision of the Deputy Warden of Programs.

Any inmate who is identified as a sex offender per IMPP 11-115 shall only be allowed visitation in concert with the provisions of that IMPP.
