NRS 211.230 Release for work or education: Temporary release for other
purposes. The administrator of the
program may release a prisoner from the facility:
1. If the prisoner is injured during work or education, for medical treatment at the prisoner’s own expense or at the expense of the employer or industrial insurance. Release pursuant to this subsection is not an assumption of liability by the county for the treatment.
2. For no more than 72 hours:
(a) For other medical, dental or psychiatric care;
(b) For a personal or family emergency if severe hardship would otherwise result; or
(c) For any other activity which the administrator considers may promote the prisoner’s successful return to the community, including attempts to secure housing, employment or education.
