BACKGROUND

The support services GEO provides on behalf of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement include around-the-clock access to medical care, in-person and virtual legal and family visitation, general and legal library access, dietician-approved meals, religious and specialty diets, recreational amenities, and opportunities to practice their religious beliefs. Additionally, all of GEO’s ICE Processing Centers are independently accredited by the American Correctional Association and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. At locations where GEO provides health care services, individuals are provided with robust access to teams of medical professionals including physicians, nurses, dentists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Ready access to off-site medical specialists, imaging facilities, Emergency Medical Services, and local community hospitals is also provided when needed. Health care staffing at GEO’s ICE Processing Center is more than double that of many states’ correctional facilities.

FACILITY DESCRIPTION:

The center has support areas consisting of medical, kitchen, dining room, laundry and warehouse buildings. An on-site administrative building serves the needs of ICE and the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR). The center’s clinic area is designed according to the requirements and specifications of the U.S. Public Health Service.

ACCREDITATION:

The center achieved initial accreditation through the American Correctional Association in 2009 and reaccreditation in 2012, 2015, and 2018 with a score of 99.60%.
