King County Jail Packet Instructions
King County Jail Non-DAJD Packet
Fill out the attached Non-DAJD Packet. The instructions for filling out the packet is also attached. Please return them to:
Nancy Barnum
Jail Health Services
401 Fifth Avenue, Suite 1000
Seattle, WA 98104
206.263.8327 Office
206.205.6236 Fax
Nancy is the HR Liaison for Jail Health Services (JHS). Once Nancy receives the packet, she'll forward them to DAJD (Dept. of Adult & Juvenile Detention -- the folks that actually own the jail). Nancy will then send instructions to you to call DAJD and set up an appointment to have fingerprints taken. Once the fingerprint results are returned, then the background check starts. It generally takes 7-15 days once the fingerprints have been returned. Nancy will notify you and Miriam Philby (JHS Clinical Operations Administrator) when you have been cleared, with more instructions to make an appointment to come in and have photos taken. These photos go into the DAJD database. When you come in to work, you will turn in your driver's license and the Sergeant at the reception area in the jail will give you an "H" badge. This stands for “Health” and allows you to move about the facility as if you had an ID.
