New Medical Observation
Unit
|
|
|
|
A new facility in the Davis County Jail has just been completed.
The new Medical Observation Unit will replace the Correctional
Facility’s current medical wing, which opened in 1991 to address
minor medical needs. The new wing will have the capacity to
serve 33 individuals, which is five times the capacity of the
previous facility. The new medical unit includes negative
pressure cells to isolate and treat inmates with infectious
diseases onsite. Those entering the care and custody at the
Davis County Jail will also see improved treatment and
observation of substance withdrawal.
Construction of the Medical Observation Unit began on February
5, 2020. Even with supply chain issues due to the COVID-19
pandemic, the project was completed nearly $90,000 under budget.
Hogan Construction built the facility which was designed by
Archiplex Group.
“Our mission of improving the lives of those in Davis County is
a tangible reality with this brand-new medical facility,” said
Sheriff Kelly V. Sparks. “With an emphasis on telehealth, more
medical care will be provided onsite, greatly reducing the
number of inmates transported out of the facility.”
