IA DOC – Iowa Medical and Classification Center (IMCC) basic information to help guide you through what you can do for your inmate while they are incarcerated. The facility's direct contact number: 319-626-2391
This facility is for adult inmates.
The inmates housed at Iowa Medical and Classification Center located at 2700 Coral Ridge Ave in Coralville, IA are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.
The IMCC currently houses an average daily population of approximately 950 medium-security state inmates and serves as the reception and classification center for all those entering the adult institutional corrections system, which is estimated to be four to five hundred new commitments every month just for intake and classification. A population unit is in operation at IMCC and the Center also runs the only licensed forensic psychiatric hospital in the state, providing inpatient psychiatric and evaluation services to non-adjudicated patients. An additional unit consisting of 178 medical and psychiatric beds was added in 2007 to meet the increasing mental health and medical needs of the correctional population. The professional health care staff at IMCC include Psychiatrists, Medical Physicians, Psychologists, Nursing, Social Workers, Laboratory, Radiology, Respiratory, Dental, Optometry, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners as well as others. Educational opportunities available to IMCC inmates/patients include instruction towards the completion of their GED. Adult Basic Education, English as a Second Language, Vocational, post-secondary, and special education classes are provided for those meeting eligibility requirements.
