What Happens When Your Loved One Needs Medical Care at Sheboygan County (and How to Drop Off Medication)

The Sheboygan County Detention Center charges a small fee for visits with medical staff - whether that's a physician, assistant, or nurse. This policy is authorized under a Sheboygan County ordinance.

Fees are deducted immediately from your loved one's canteen account - 100% at once. There's no billing later. The money comes straight out of the funds they'd use for commissary purchases.

Note: Fees are collected only for medical services your loved one requests.

Nurse sick call runs Monday through Friday. If your loved one puts in a request to see the nurse, the fee is $5.00.

For issues requiring a doctor, MD sick call happens once a week. That visit costs $7.00.

Med Dropoff Rules

  • Bring medication in the original pharmacy packaging.
  • Make sure the original pharmacy label is still attached and clearly shows the inmate’s name.
  • Only drop off medication that is current and not expired.
  • Keep each medication in its own separate packaging (do not combine pills or mix medications together).

Note: The facility won't accept mixed medications. Each prescription must stay in its own separate pharmacy packaging.

Trying to estimate costs? Focus on whether your loved one is actually requesting medical services. Sheboygan County only charges fees for services the inmate asks for.

Tip: Have questions about fees or sick call? Contact the facility directly for current details. Quick reference: nurse sick call is Monday–Friday at $5.00, MD sick call is once weekly at $7.00, and all fees are deducted from the canteen account immediately.
