How to Contact an Inmate at Washington County Detention Center (MD)

Washington County Detention Center's online visiting setup has a couple of practical details that are easy to miss. One quick tip: use headphones. They make a noticeable difference in audio quality during internet visits.

Visiting from a desktop computer? The facility's video visit system may require a desktop application called GTL VisBridge. To set it up, log into your visitor account at least 10 minutes before your scheduled visit. Select "Internet Visit Tester" from the menu bar and follow the prompts to download and install what you need.

How to Contact an Inmate at Washington County Detention Center (MD)

Steps-to-follow

  • Log into your visitor account at least 10 minutes before your scheduled internet visit
  • Select “Internet Visit Tester” from the menu bar and follow the prompts (this is part of downloading and setting up GTL VisBridge for desktop visits)
  • Use headphones for better audio during the visit

Before you plan around these steps, confirm the current setup for Washington County Detention Center's online visits. Platforms and device requirements can change. Double-check that GTL VisBridge is still required for desktop visits, that the "Internet Visit Tester" option is still the right way to prepare, and whether the "log in 10 minutes early" timing still applies to your visit type and account.

Reminder: Headphones are recommended for best audio. Still, confirm any equipment rules ahead of time, including what devices are allowed and whether there are restrictions on accessories.
