This is a very sad situation. I pray for the family of this nurse. I am a corrections nurse. I work at a level 5 super maximum security prison. You don't go anywhere without someone being aware. I am thankful for this, and other correctional nurses I'm sure know what I'm talking about. I work with some of the states most notorious and dangerous inmates. I also work with excellent security staff members. I wouldn't work at a minimum security prison for any amount of money. Our inmates are always restrained when we work with them. Security is first. Security is tight. I love my job as a corrections nurse and hope to continue through retirement. It saddens me to hear stories like these. It's ironic that you are more safe working at a facility that houses dangerous inmates.
