Once you've made it past the security checkpoint, you'll be ushered into the visitation room, where you'll get to spend some quality time with your loved one. The rooms are usually equipped with video conferencing equipment, so you can see and talk to the inmate, even if they're not in the same room as you. It's like a facetime call, but with more barriers and less Wi-Fi.

The visit duration is usually pretty short, so make sure you make the most of it. You'll typically get around 30 minutes to an hour with the inmate, depending on the jail's schedule and the inmate's behavior.
