A lot of prisons are using agencies. Could always look up some in your area. See if they are hiring. Several even are starting to provide benefits to the staff. Which is a great addition. Prison Health Management | Corizon Correctional Healthcare is a company that employes in many states.

I worked at a Maximum Security Prison. Loved it. Only left because I got a job closer to home that had benefits. I then accepted a job in a locked down unit at a psych hospital. Loved both very much. The pros do out weigh the cons. More structure, less non compliance with medical care. And oddly the offenders/patients are much more appreciative of the care, education, and insight you supply to them. You do see the holes in general societies system. There are some you do empathize for. Working at both places I never had fear and I loved going to work. Wish I could find another job like those. However, most are only PRN and I need FT.

It's tough but I'm doing ok. Just received all my grades except one but I'm happy. Did kind of throw us all off. To get into the program majority of everyone has Pretty high grades and used to A's & B's. But, once we are in the program you are working hard for every single %. But, we keep reminding each other that once we get our license it won't say Jane Doe LPN with a C in Pharmacology. But, I'm sure that's with every program. But, one thing I do like about my class is that we are not competitive with one another. My friend that's in the Kokomo PN program says they are very much so with one another. And she says the instructures make it seem like she is a burrden when she asks a question.

Hey, I'm in the Logansport LN program. I had... A 80.6% over all on my Teas. With a 95.0% in Reading 64.4% in Math 86.7% in Science 80% in English In my Classes I had... Eng 111 - A Mat 111 - B Psy 101 - B ANP 101 - B ANP 102 - C They will tell you it's very hard to get into it especially the Kokomo one. But, there was a girl that was on the waiting list for both Logan and Kokomo and she got into the Kokomo one. You're best bet is to apply to a few programs. Kokomo, Logan, Wabash... ect..... How that helps.
