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.
