About the Muskingum County Jail
Strong security procedures are one of the corner stones of the policies and procedures at the Muskingum County Jail. It houses both male and female detainees who have been arrested locally. Juvenile offenders and those who are being charged as minors are sent to the local juvenile facility and not housed with the adults. The corrections department in the county is run under the office of the Sheriff, providing key interactions and communication between the arresting officers and enforcement throughout the community and the corrections officers within the jail. Corrections officers receive extra training on safety and how to prevent conflict and diffuse situations. This advanced training provides increased safety for all staff and inmates. Inmates are carefully observed to ensure they are following the rules and regulations within the facility. Activities, recreational opportunities, and programming is provided to help inmates to feel productive and gain new skills. Spiritual programming is available for those who want it, educational programs for furthering education and improving job opportunities, psychological supports to boost mental health, and more. Each of these programs is intended to help inmates grow through the experience and to leave with skills that will help them to build productive and happy lives after release, and have been shown to help reduce the rate of return to jail in the future. VIsitation is provided via video systems through icsolutions.com and all visits must be scheduled there, as there is no set visitation time at this facility beyond those that the lobby is open.
