The Bucks County Correctional Facility (BCCF) in Doylestown holds pretrial detainees, sentenced county inmates, and people serving state sentences in the county under contract. Here is a complete guide for families.
Finding Your Loved One
Bucks County does not have a standalone public online inmate search. To locate an inmate:
- Call the facility directly: (215) 348-6800 — they can confirm housing by name and booking number
- Pennsylvania Unified Judicial System: ujsportal.pacourts.us — court docket and case information including detention status
- Newly arrested individuals are processed through the county's booking system and typically appear within 24 hours of arrest
Phone Calls: ICSolutions
Bucks County Correctional Facility uses ICSolutions for inmate telephone services:
- Create a free account at icsolutions.com
- Register the phone number you want calls received on
- Fund your account
- Make sure your number is on the inmate's approved call list
Inmates call out — you cannot call in. Calls are monitored and recorded except attorney-client calls.
Sending Money: JPay
Bucks County Correctional Facility uses JPay for inmate trust account deposits. Go to JPay.com, search the inmate under Bucks County Correctional Facility, and deposit by card. Fees apply.
Visiting
- Visits are scheduled — confirm current visiting hours and registration requirements at (215) 348-6800 or buckscounty.gov/corrections
- Valid government-issued photo ID required
- Dress code enforced — no camouflage, no orange, no revealing clothing
- Approved visitor list — the inmate must add visitors through facility staff
- Video visitation may be available through ICSolutions as an alternative to in-person
Due to the facility's mail scanning policy (implemented to prevent fentanyl-soaked paper from reaching inmates), the original physical letter may not reach your loved one — only a digital scan. Confirm current mail policy at (215) 348-6800 before sending. Attorney-client mail is handled separately and not scanned.
