I've worked in corrections for the past 6 1/2 yrs (4yrs MedSurg Ortho prior to this). I am very interested in travel nursing. Is anyone working in corrections as a travel nurse? Any info such as places, travel agencies, hospitals with correctional floors would be greatly appreciated! I have worked in a max security prison with death row and have experience in emergencies (minor and major), infection control and infectious diseases (much training in HIV/AIDS), psych (over 1 yr working psych only), infirmary, and management experience. No recent hospital experience though.
I think Supplemental (Travel Nursing) staffs correctional facilities. Check them out.
Any other travel agencies that anyone is familiar with that staff correctional facilities (jails and prisons, youth centers, etc)???
INS offers good travel positions within Maricopa County Jail in Phoenix, AZ. The jail has has been showcased on tv's 'Cops' series. They offer 13-26 week assignments. That is Independent Nursing Services, Wendi or Nicole. Also, HRN has traveler position for DOC in California. Check it out.
