Padoc Visitation Schedule Shocks Staff Over New Policy Changes - Away State Journal
What Is a Visitation or Viewing? A visitation is a scheduled period where family and friends come together to offer condolences, share memories, and provide emotional support to those grieving the loss of a loved one. These gatherings often take place at a funeral home, place of worship, or occasionally a family residence.
Visitation hours are 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven days a week. All pre-scheduled remote visitation sessions will begin on the hour and half hour and last 30 minutes long.
While the Video Visitation Center maintains consistent hours, on-site visitation at the Main Jail may be subject to changes on weekends and holidays. Contact Escambia County Jail directly at 850-436-9831 for the most up-to-date information regarding holiday visitation schedules.
