Hello, are there any correctional nurses who currently work in corrections (prisons or jails) from the following states??? And if so, can you tell me what your current rates are?

If anyone can respond, thanks!!

I am an LPN and I worked for Correctional Medical Services for more than 2 years in the County Jail and was up to 20.50/hr. I give them 4-12 hours per week now as Per diem and am getting 21.50 plus shift diff's of $2, $3, $4, or $5 and a $200 bonus for an 11-7 if I am the only nurse on duty. This is in Massachusetts. There is no increase in pay if we work short and OT is after 40 hours.
