Bedford is the fifth prison to be issued with an urgent notification for improvement from HM Inspectorate of Prisons this year.
Prisons Minister Edward Argar said the findings were " unacceptable".

The Chief Inspector of Prisons, Charlie Taylor , issued an urgent notification for improvement within days of the inspection, as conditions had deteriorated so sharply since The Last checks.
He Said many of the issues reflected wider problems across The Prison estate.
" There were not enough staff, and prisoners were held in overcrowded and squalid conditions with very high rates of violence and self-harm, " He Said .
He added that the staff present were " inexperienced" and failed to deal with low-level behaviour, and inspectors found examples of excessive use of force and abuse of prisoners.
" There had also been, almost unbelievably, an escape by a prisoner supposedly under constant supervision, " He Said .
Prisoners, staff and managers reported witnessing racism and The Post of equality manager at the jail had been vacant for a year, The Report added.
In response, The Prison has now completed the recruitment of a new diversity manager and a second post will be appointed to accelerate improvement on inclusion.
The Report also found inmates had been housed in mouldy and graffiti-covered cells, with Broken Windows .
The government said a new taskforce has been appointed to make repairs and applications for funding to make larger repairs will be made on a case by case basis.
Since The Last check, inspectors had also found The Levels of self-harm in The Prison had risen by 84%.
The Secretary of state has 28 Days to respond to The Report 's findings.
