Who to Call at Canyon County Jail: Medical Hours, Clerk's Office, and Court Questions
Need to ask about a medical issue, confirm a court date, or handle something urgent? Calling the right office first saves you time. Here are the contacts families use most at Canyon County Jail.
The detention medical unit handles non-urgent questions by phone during business hours: 08:00–17:00. Call outside that window and you'll likely need to try again the next business day.
Emergency concerns: Call the main Canyon County Detention Center at 208-454-7540 - especially outside the medical unit’s 08:00–17:00 hours.
Wondering when the court date is? Call the Canyon County Clerk's Office at 454-7575 - that's the number the jail directs people to for scheduling questions.
Planning to attend court to show support? Know the rules beforehand. Communication between inmates and the public isn't allowed in the courtroom. If you try to talk to or signal an inmate, you can be asked to leave.
Don't expect details about transport. The detention center doesn't share inmate transport days or times with the public - it's a security policy.
