Virtual Visitations for Correctional Facilities

Ensuring the safety, security, and health of prison staff, inmates, and their families is a critical function of correctional facilities. Virtual visits for inmates via video conferencing are an excellent way to reduce security risks while aiding in rehabilitation, mitigating exposure to illness, and providing better access to proper medical attention. Vidyo’s virtual visitation helps reduce prison costs while delivering supportive links to the community for a more successful re-entry into society.  

Virtual Visits for Inmates 

Inmates can visit by live video using virtual technology on an institutional computer. This allows inmates to develop and maintain family and community ties when in-person visits are not possible. Virtual visitation does not replace in-person visits but it gives visitors another way to communicate with an inmate. Here are some benefits of virtual inmate visit.
