As a Nurse at a NY Corr Fac the biggest reason you probably haven't heard is because NY is about to close several facilities thus resulting in lateral transfers for some Nurses. I don't expect to see any hiring until these moves are completed.

New York I am an RN with 16 years experience top of the pay scale making $24.06 per hour with tons of overtime. Pay is comparable to hospital pay but better benefits and state retirement plan.

I work for NYS Dept of Corrections and we have 4 travel nurses at our facility in Elmira NY and 1 travel nurse at the other correctional facility across town. They are all employed by Nursefinders.
