Jobs for New Nurses with loans

Published

There is a very exciting job that a lot of nurses dont know about that will assist you in paying your govt. student loans. I recently retired from them and must admit, I do miss the excitement, travel, and atmosphere. Check out the Depart of Justice, Federal Bureau of Prisons. They currently have 110 institutions in most states and PR. If you are interested and want more information, I will be happy to let you know what I know.

How much is the loan payoff? How long of a contract do you have and what is the job like? I must admit I have been a little curious about prison nursing.

(if you feel queasy about working in the penal machinery which houses the worlds largest incarcerated population).

In 20 years my family and I transferred from Ca to Tx, to MD, to Co, to Ks and retired in Az. Being from a military family and doing 11 years in the Army, I have a hard time staying put as well. Each of these transfers were promotions and while the initial pay was not as much as I was making in the private sector, it didnt take long to meet and beat that pay. The retirement is very good and the benefits are fantastic. The work can be hard and dangerious, but they train you on how to handle situations and then you are required to update each year.

Again, the list of benefits are too long to mention here, but it is a true "family" and you will find that people have your back, just like you will have theirs.
