I worked at Our Lady of Peace which is now Jewish St Marys and Elizibeth and I LOVED it! I also think that timbroek and maryhurst is hiring if you like teens...lol! The prison in Lagrange...not far from louisville is also hiring. I worked there and it was a great expirience.

I took the Kaplan review and passed my boards the first try! My employer did cover this cost. The center is off of hurstbourne.

You did a great job in the decision you made! Remember the sergant doesnt have a license to worry about and we are ultimately responsible if an inmate dies on our watch. Always trust your instincts!

I worked in corrections and for the most part I NEVER got bored with my job. A downside is the amount of lawsuits in this setting. I never realized how prevalent they were. It is a very exciting and rewarding field.

Being a correctional nurse can be a very rewarding expirience. You take care of the same population you would see in any ER or Long Term Care facility the only difference is these people are often times more violent or verbally abusive. No one really wants to die alone, and in most cases you are the person there caring for them when they take their last breaths of life. Corrections taught me some great life lessons. I am now alot less judgmental and loving toward all people from all walks of life. The down side is there is a TON of lawsuits in the prison setting, and the inmates actually WIN! Just chart, chart, chart, and then chart again! I am no longer working at the prison, but will never forget the time that I spent there taking care of those everyone else had forgotten.

I worked at a maximum security all male prison. I was on a medical unit with mostly sex offenders. "Cat calls" were a frequent occurance. Most of the time I would just ignore them. They win if you show emotion! For the repeat offenders ( the ones who like to masturbate with an audience) I would just tell a correctional officer and they would write them up. They hate this because they can loose canteen priviledges or even be sent to the hole AKA segregation! Most know your boundries and how far they can go before you act. Be consistant with how you respond! I have found that no response is the best one!
