Don't bring money orders to the visit for the person in care (PIOC). NLCI does not accept money orders in the visiting room. They're only accepted through the mail.
Planning to use the vending machines? You're the only one who can handle money or cards. At NLCI, all vending purchases must be made by the visitor. A person in our care (PIOC) may not handle currency, debit cards, or credit cards, and they're not allowed in the vending area.
Heads up: If you bring something that's not allowed (like a diaper bag or powdered baby formula), staff will turn it away at the door. For medically necessary medications, plan on leaving them at the visiting room officer station.
