Century Prison Visitations Returned This Weekend
January 18, 2008
Visitations were once again allowed this weekend at the Century Correctional Institution. Visitations were canceled last weekend due to case of chicken pox within the facility.
A spokesman said one person had a confirmed case of the chicken pox and there were other possible cases, prompting the cancellation last weekend as a precaution.
“We have identified several cases of chicken pox at this institution, and as a precautionary measure, visitation has been canceled for this weekend,” according to statement on the Florida Department of Corrections website last week that was attributed to Director of Health Services Patrick H. Brown, M.D.
“We do this to ensure that you and your loved ones are not exposed to any potential cases.” the statement continued. “Thank you for your understanding.”
According to the Department of Corrections website, there are 1,361 inmates currently at Century Correctional Institute. That most recent staff count was 410. It was established in 1991.
