Correct Care Solutions for Shelby County (memphis) Jails...


I have an interview on Monday and was wondering if anyone has any experience working in Memphis jails. I've read horrible stories and I've read great ones, but none about Memphis.

I've worked for CCS in Davidson County for several years and have had a great experience. I'd recommend going for the interview and asking for a tour.

I'm not familiar with CCS, but a former coworker of mine worked at 201 Poplar and really liked it.

Alot of what is good about working for a particular company, depends upon the nursing running the site. A great company with a lousy HSA is a lousy place to work and vice versa.

good luck!

Management has a lot to do with it. I am a state DON, and my agency has hired a large number of nurses who left the local county jail (which has a medical operation run by an agency). Without exception, all have said that they generally liked the job, but the administration was impossible to work for.
