Re: How To Get into Corrections as Lvn in california

Go to the California Department of Corrections online; there is an online application and easy "test" for you to take...but beware...watch and guard your new license very carefully...I used to work in one of the prisons as an agency LVN and was paid very, very well...but saw many infractions; and witnessed many other LVNs and RNs being "walked off" the prison grounds for such things as over familiarization with inmates; also medication errors, etc. The benefits are great...but one also has to work FIVE days a week eight hours/day...too much for me - I am too used to the 12 hours shifts with my FOUR wonderful days off every week!!! Good luck!!!
