Thank again for reply, I really appreciate it. I wonder if anybody in these board live in Phoenix, Arizona like me. I would like to talk and share experience with nurse who ever work in state prison in Arizona (Florence). Please reply me and share some of your experience with me.

Lorry, Thank you so much for reply me, I really appreciate it. It is intimidate me to work in correction facility, since this is first time for me. I have ICU background justl like you and I work at ICU and Med/Surg for many years. I really got burn out of it, I visit your blog and I really like it. Again thank you.

Hi everyone, I am new to this board, I have been practice nursing for couple years in USA and many years in another country. Currently I accepted a job as correction RN in state prison because of the benefit and pay, they offer 20 years retirement and full benefit and no call off for low census like in hospital setting. I was working in hospital setting as Med/Surg/Tele for 2 years, since Nov 08, the hospital got affected by economy downturn. They start to lay off nursing supervisor and management, me as a floor nurse got cancel alot. I never got 36 hr./week since Nov,08 till now. So, I am looking for stable job (hopefully), I found a job as state correction that offer better pay but my concern is it is safe to work as state correction? and what is duty of RN in state correction do? What is our routine? I will be working night shift 7PM-7AM. Can anyone who work in state correction please share your experience with me? I am appreciate it.
