Visiting Someone in Restrictive Housing at Stanley CI: Video Booth Visits and First-Come Rules

Restrictive housing visits at Stanley CI happen over video. You won't sit together in the visiting room. Instead, you'll be in a booth in the visiting room while your loved one connects from a video conference room in Restrictive Housing.

These visits max out at one hour. If you're traveling a distance, know this going in - it helps the time feel focused rather than rushed.

Only two visitors can attend a restrictive-housing visit. If more family members want to come, decide ahead of time who's going in.

You won't schedule a specific appointment time. Restrictive-housing visits run first-come, first-served during regular visiting hours - so your place in line matters.

Here's something that affects your spot in line: visitors can't enter the lobby until ten minutes before visiting hours start. If you arrive earlier, expect to wait outside.
