How to Visit Churchill Detention Facility, NV (NV)

Remote visitation at Churchill Detention Facility runs through Securus. You'll need to create a Securus account first, and then you can visit from home. There is a small fee for using the platform.

Need to add money to someone's inmate account? There's a kiosk in the Sheriff's Office foyer where family members can deposit funds in person. If you're local, it's a straightforward option.

The first couple of days after booking can feel like a blackout from the outside. At Churchill Detention Facility, newly booked inmates are locked down in their cells for 48 hours after booking. During that time, they're only available for phone calls one hour per day. If you're trying to reach someone right away, plan around that narrow window.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Create a Securus account for remote visitation before you try to schedule or join a visit
• ✓ Be prepared to pay the remote-visit platform fee (the facility describes it as minimal)
• ✓ Set up your device and login ahead of time so you are not troubleshooting at visit time

• ✓ Use the kiosk in the Sheriff’s Office foyer to deposit money onto an inmate’s account
• ✓ Bring the payment method you plan to use, then follow the kiosk prompts to complete the deposit

• ✓ If your loved one was just booked, expect a 48-hour cell lockdown before routines stabilize
• ✓ During that initial 48-hour period, phone access is limited to one hour per day, so keep trying at different times instead of assuming calls are blocked

Before you count on a specific setup for remote visits, confirm the current Securus requirements for visitors. That includes what information you need to create an account and which payment methods are accepted. I'd also recommend confirming that Securus is still the active remote visitation provider for Churchill Detention Facility.

For money deposits, verify the kiosk is still in the Sheriff's Office foyer and check the foyer's hours before heading over. You'll also want to confirm which payment types the kiosk accepts and whether there are other approved ways to add money to an inmate's account.

Intake policies can shift, especially when staffing or housing conditions change. If timing matters for your family, confirm that newly booked inmates are still locked down for 48 hours and that phone calls remain limited to one hour per day during that period.
