Inmates will have the opportunities to use the telephones, showers, have three meals a day, and have the opportunity to have medical care if needed. If an inmate wants more products that the facility does not provide, they can purchase them through the commissary with money that they have on their books.

The Kensington Community Detention also allows inmates to have visitors as well.
