Anyone apply for BOP?

I believe they do but most are accepted. You can be let go at training if you can't pass the physical test

Thanks desertrn for reply. Do you work for bop?

Thanks desertrn for reply. Do you work for bop?

I did in 2010

I saw an opening with a BOP facility close to me. How is it working for BOP? Just intrigued me because the hospital I currently work at get patients from the BOP facility and when I was talking to the correctional officers they told me the benefits are good. Also the FCI is a closer commute. How is the pay? Do they usually do 8 or 12 shifts?? What is the routine usually like?

The one I worked at was 10 hour shifts. It is busy depending on the shift and medical level of the facility. Med pass is like 200 people to a nurse or pharmacist. Some of them have pharmacists doing pill line too. New intakes sock call inmate and staff emergencies. Plus at BOP nurses are also officers and weapons trained

What is the physical test like?

The physical is tough but train for it
