Westmoreland County Prison is a very large brick facility that can house up to 650 inmates at any time. It welcomes visitors with a glass entrance to the lobby, where kiosks are located for adding money to the account of an inmate, and where they can access the visitation areas. The main focus of the prison is to provide a safe space for the housing of inmates who are sentenced and serving their sentence or who are facing trial or sentencing dates.
There is a focus on education and improvement, with the intent that inmates leave the prison at the end of their sentence better prepared for success after their release than when they arrived. This includes educational programs and rehabilitation treatments, as well as communication with their friends and family who are not incarcerated. These are key to the social improvement and to support their rehabilitation.
Both video visits and in person visits are supported, and up to 3 video visits may be accessed each week. When visiting, each person will have to go through a scanner that checks for metal, and they will be checked for contraband, and can attend one visit each week of one half hour.
Personal belongings are not permitted in the visiting area and must be left at home or in a vehicle. Inmates are also now permitted use of a tablet that encourages video visitation and offers entertainment opportunities as well as phone calls and messages. In order to attend video visits, an account must be created on the GTL VisMobile appp or at the westmorelandpa.gtlvisitme.com website.
Tablets are funded and accessed through GettingOut.com and they provide access to educational content, multimedia access, and will soon be offering the ability to send photographs and images, as well as messages with an inmate.

After being arrested, the offender is brought to the Westmoreland County Prison for booking, which is the detailed process of identifying, classifying, deciding on charges, and whether the person will either be released on their own recognizance, allowed to be released on bail, or moved into the jail until their court date.
The first thing every newly arrested person must do is close their mouth. Everything an offender says may be used against them, so the best thing to do is remain silent when questioned about the arrest and what led to it.
These are the steps of booking someone into the Westmoreland County Prison:
If you have any questions about when you can pay an offender's bond and what the cost will be, call the facility at 724-830-6000.
