wondering?

So I have a offer of employment at my local county correctional facility pending the background check done by the deputy warden. About 4 years ago I had visited an inmate with a friend of mine went for moral support. The only thing my paperwork asked was if I knew of anyone currently incarcerated which I was honest and said no they never asked if I had ever visited anyone.if they had I would've been honest as well. I spoke with the don today to let her know I had sent for the other 3 backround checks they require and asked what the wardens check would include she said to make sure I do not associate with the wrong crowd and that I have no criminal record. Now I am worried this is what I have wanted all along and I would hate for a few visits years ago to ruin this opportunity. Any advice? I'm in pa

    Visits with an inmate won't show up on a background check. Mostly this consists of running an FBI rap sheet and usually a rap sheet from your state bureau of investigation. If you have contact from this point forward with anyone who you know has a criminal record, you should report it to your employer. Usually this is not a major issue and it is just noted. I had a brother-in-law who became incarcerated in another state. I had no contact with him, but I still reported it.

    I appreciate your response! I have been a nervous wreck waiting for the warden to finish my background check as this has always been my ultimate goal! I have completed my fbi fingerprinting child abuse and state police checks so wondering what else there is to check that is why I was concerned that they would be checking past visitation records. Thanks again
