Setting Up Video Visits with Someone in Medina County Jail (remote and on-site)
Video visits at Medina County Jail run through Securus, and you can connect either remotely or on-site. The key thing to know: the person you're visiting handles the scheduling. Once you understand how that works, the rest comes down to being ready when it's time.
Medina County Jail offers video visitation seven days a week through Securus - both remote and on-site options are available. Not sure where to start? The jail directs visitors to Securus for setup details, and there's a video visitation link on the jail's website too.
Note: Securus Video Connect is web-based, so you can join a video visit using the free Securus app or a computer/tablet with internet access.
Here's something that trips people up: at Medina County Jail, the incarcerated person schedules visits and adds visitors to their list. They're responsible for telling you the date and time, so your confirmation comes directly from them - not the jail.
Heads up: Don’t call the jail to ask whether you’re on the visitation list - they don’t have the list available to verify over the phone.
Remote video visits go through Securus. The jail points visitors there for details, and you'll find a direct link to video visitation on the jail's website.
Securus Video Connect lets friends, family, attorneys, and public officials schedule and join video sessions from anywhere with internet access. Use the free Securus app or log in from a computer or tablet - whatever works best for you.
Planning an on-site video visit? Know that schedules vary by housing unit. The times available for one person may not match what's available for someone in a different part of the jail.
Visitation access opens after the incarcerated person finishes their orientation period. Since they're the ones who schedule visits and add you to their list, confirm the date and time with them directly - don't guess.
