How to Contact an Inmate at Farmington Correctional Center, MO (FL)

Farmington Correctional Center offers visiting sessions on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

A second session runs those same days from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

The afternoon sessions at Farmington are split by type. The 1st and 3rd afternoon sessions are designated as food visits, while the 2nd and 4th afternoon sessions are reserved for treatment offenders only.

Phone contact here works differently than you might expect. You can't call in to reach an offender. Instead, they place outgoing calls to you, as long as they're not on restricted status.

The facility's phone system supports collect calls, debit calls, and prepaid calls.

Offenders may also place calls through a phone application on JPay tablets.

Keep in mind: Offenders need a personal PIN to place calls. Call time can be funded by purchasing debit minutes in the canteen, at a kiosk, or through a Securus account. All offender phone calls are monitored for security purposes.

How to Contact an Inmate at Farmington Correctional Center, MO (FL)

Steps to Follow

  • Choose a visiting day that falls on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.
  • Plan around the morning visiting session (9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.) or the afternoon visiting session (2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.).
  • If you are visiting in the afternoon, confirm which session it is: 1st and 3rd afternoons are food visits, 2nd and 4th afternoons are for treatment offenders only.
  • Wait for your loved one to call you, since offenders cannot receive incoming calls.
  • Make sure your loved one is able to place calls (outgoing calls are allowed when the offender is not on restricted status).
  • Be ready for the types of calls the system supports: collect, debit, or prepaid.
  • If you are funding calls, use an allowed method: debit minutes bought in the canteen, purchased at a kiosk, or funded through a Securus account.
  • Ask your loved one if they are using the JPay tablet phone application as part of their calling options.
  • Assume calls are monitored, and keep conversations appropriate for a recorded line.

Before you make the trip, confirm the current visiting schedule and how afternoon sessions are being designated. The posted schedule lists visits Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and from 2:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The 1st and 3rd afternoon sessions are food visits; the 2nd and 4th afternoons are for treatment offenders only.

Phone access can shift based on an offender's status and the facility's setup. Check that your loved one isn't on restricted status, find out which call types they can place (collect, debit, or prepaid), and confirm how they're funding call time (canteen debit minutes, kiosk purchases, or a Securus account). If they mention tablet calling, ask whether they're currently using the JPay tablet phone application.
