The professional standards maintained by the Johnson County Adult Detention Centers will assure the constitutional rights, personal security, and humane detention of those persons incarcerated. The operations of the facility will ensure that all persons incarcerated are provided with safe, secure, and humane treatment consistent with applicable standards, laws, and judicial decisions.

The essentials of human life; e.g. medical and mental health care, a clean living environment, nutritional needs, exercise, educational opportunities, and religious freedom will be afforded to all within the Detention Center care. The continuity of family and community contact will be encouraged and maintained by appropriate policies governing visitation, mail, and telephone usage. The staff will participate in the development and implementation of facility goals, objectives, policies and procedures. The philosophies, goals, policies and procedures of the facilities will be consistent with that of the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office.
