Reason for Recommended Action/Background

The California Health and Safety Code mandates that the Health Officer furnish annual county detention facility inspection reports to the Board of Supervisors. These inspections are conducted annually to uphold an acceptable level of health and sanitary conditions in the jail detention facilities.

Background
The requirements and standards for local detention facilities health inspection reports are as follows: The health officer must inspect the health and sanitary conditions in every county jail and detention facility within the County annually; inspections are based on minimum standards and requirements prescribed by the Board of Corrections.

All detention facilities in Yolo County, including temporary holding facilities, Monroe Detention Facility, and Yolo County Juvenile Hall were inspected in 2020-2023. They are inspected annually for compliance with medical and mental health, nutrition, and environmental health regulations. Inspections were conducted by the Health and Human Services Agency and Environmental Health staff.

Collaborations (including Board advisory groups and external partner agencies)

The local detention facility inspection reports for each facility will be transmitted to the Board of Corrections and to the inspected agencies. Enforcement agencies in the cities, the Probation Department, the Sheriff's Office, and the contracted Jail Health services provider, Wellpath, cooperated with the inspection of their respective facilities and services.
