A Combined Community Health Clinic with a Rural Jail
Introduction
As a specialist in jail and detention facility design, BKV Group has developed a prototype rural jail facility designed to accommodate up to 28 beds, and another concept for up to 56 beds, which we’re calling the “Rural Jail Initiative.” This includes an integrated sheriff’s office, jail, and healthcare clinic — specifically tailored for rural communities. Our concept offers a fixed price for construction, comprehensive policies and procedures, staff training, and a healthcare provider as part of the package.
THE RURAL JAIL INITIATIVE
Key Benefits
- Improved safety and operational efficiency by centralizing inmate care and reducing long-term healthcare costs.
- A rehabilitative, community-focused design that strengthens ties with the broader community and supports reduced recidivism.
- Significant cost savings through shared infrastructure and reduced inmate transportation for healthcare.
BKV Solutions & Vision
Safety & Efficiency
By combining the jail with a health clinic, we improve the efficiency of inmate care while reducing long-term costs. This streamlined approach can prevent more costly health issues in the future and minimize the logistical challenges of transporting inmates to outside medical facilities.
Community Integration & Rehabilitation
This integrated model also serves the broader community. By merging these facilities, we emphasize rehabilitation and the well-being of both inmates and residents, which can help reduce recidivism and strengthen community ties.”
Financial Benefits
From a financial standpoint, a combined facility offers significant cost savings. Shared infrastructure, joint maintenance, and reduced transportation for inmate healthcare are just a few areas where we anticipate long-term savings.
