How to Schedule a Video Visit at Duffield Regional Jail (exact windows, hours, and prerequisites)

Remote video visits at Duffield Regional Jail aren't same-day. You need to schedule at least 24 hours ahead, and you can book up to 2 weeks out. If you want a weekend slot, plan early - those fill up fast.

Remote video visitation runs seven days a week, Monday through Sunday. The jail divides each day into visiting blocks, so you'll pick a time within one of those windows when you schedule.

• ✓ Morning block: 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
• ✓ Afternoon block: 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
• ✓ Evening block: 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

Each session lasts 15 minutes. That goes faster than you'd expect, especially on your first visit when you're still figuring out the system.

With only 15 minutes, plan ahead. Decide what matters most - updates from home, a health check-in, or time-sensitive family decisions. Keep any important details in front of you (dates, names, questions) so you're not scrambling once the clock starts.

1. Set up your Smart Communications pre-paid account - A pre-paid Smart Communications account is required to schedule a remote video visit.
2. Use SmartInmate to create or fund it - Go to www.smartinmate.com or call 1-888-253-5178 to set up or add funds to the account.

Before scheduling, confirm you're on the inmate's approved visitor list. Without approval, you won't be able to conduct a video visit - even with an account and a time slot ready to go.
