Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center

Visiting at Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center starts with the CR-2152 visitor application. You can't visit until the form is fully completed and approved, and TDOC guidance calls for a decision within 30 days of receipt. There is one exception: immediate family of newly committed inmates may visit for up to 60 days from intake without prior approval. After that, the standard CR-2152 process applies. Each inmate's approved visitor list is recorded during initial classification and can include immediate family plus eight additional adults. Your CR-2152 must include a recent photograph (applications with missing photos won't be processed), and children age six and older also need photos. Falsifying a form triggers at least a six-month bar on reapplying. Applicants undergo NCIC background checks and must update every 24 months. Once approved, you'll schedule visits through the facility's system and follow TDOC security, clothing, and search rules.

Phone calls at Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center run through GTL/ConnectNetwork, and the per-minute rate dropped to 7.5 cents effective July 1, 2024. You cannot call the facility and get connected to an incarcerated person. Tennessee DOC does not allow inbound calls from the public. In a family emergency, reach out to the facility chaplain, who may be able to help facilitate a call. Your loved one manages an approved phone list of up to ten numbers and must initiate any changes. If you want your number removed, submit a written request to the facility warden. To help them keep calling, you can add phone funds through the vendor's portal or app, or purchase credits by sending funds directly to Global Tel*Link at the vendor's Denver, Colorado address.

Handling money for someone at Debra K. Johnson Rehab Center usually comes down to two things: adding funds for daily needs and setting up phone payments. Family and friends can typically deposit money using on-site kiosks, online portals or apps, automated phone systems, or approved trustee and tax-office channels. The exact options depend on what the facility supports. Most electronic deposits go through third-party processors, not the facility itself, and you'll see any convenience or processing fees during checkout. When making a deposit or looking up an account, use the incarcerated person's full name plus the facility identifier (ID or jacket number, or birthdate). Keep your receipt in case a deposit is delayed. Any remaining ITS trust fund balance is refunded directly to the inmate upon release from TDOC custody. Phone services use GTL/ConnectNetwork, and the per-minute rate is 7.5 cents effective July 1, 2024.
