I took the online assessment first. Based on that's and the locations you pick to work, they send you letters of interest when a job opens. You fill out a std678 form I believe and send it in with everything else the job interest letter asks for. I h...

I was one such nurse at a county jail and back up what Orca mentioned above. The way management treats you in private contractor companies is I believe the key reason why their is such high turnover of staff. Goodluck to you. I'm sure you will do wel...

Congrats!!!

I'm sorry that some of you feel that you have to work out of your scope of practice. At the facility I work in I feel very comfortable working, I had 6 weeks of training and we also have a PA a FnP and an MD in house all day from 7-3 or reachable by ...

To answer your question yes!! Don't get me wrong I love my job but 99% of the time I'd rather deal with an inmate than my co-workers n their BS gossip!

1. I work for a county jail. 2. I went from graduating nursing school to working in corrections the day after I passed my boards. 3. Assessment, assessment, assessment 4. I work for a private company who contracts with jails in many counties in North...

Try Kaplan. It's the best thing you can do.

Been an RN for a little over 2 years. I'm in the Central Valley and am a corrections nurse:) love every minute of my job:)

LOL..this is totally me somedays:))

Needless to say*

At intake client told me he feels suicidal. Per protocol he was placed in safety cell but before that his clothing was removed. Custody calls me on the radio to get to safety cell stat. I run over there to find client standing naked n upon closer ins...

Hi there, as a former Electrical Engineer with a BS & MS in the field I can tell you that I do not regret leaving all that behind to become an RN!! I love my job, I look forward to it everyday I hv to work unlike back in the day where I had a con...

I don't work for Corizon but here in Northern Cali i always here good things about them:)

If you can't get into a PS office also try med spas. They will usually pay for half your training, get your experience then move up to a PS office. I just do this part time as a stress reliever since I'm a correctional nurse:) just my two cents

I don't work for SD county Sheriffs but if u do that means we work for the same private contractor company. I'm a nurse in another county in Cali n the company I work for also is out in San Diego county. Our standard protocols are across the board co...

I work for a contractor company at the county level and am not an FNP but I think our FNP's make 54-57 an hour.. hope that helps.

I know in the jail I work at, they don't allow interim permit nurses or shadowing. This may be different for different areas and states. I'm in Cali

I started off in corrections as a new grad two years ago. I can't imagine doing anything else:) I have also take my SANE-A and scheduled to take my SANE-P this year but I don't use that at work at all. I love forensics and someday wil lget into it wh...

NO i'm not in it for the money. I have a BS and MS in Electrcial Engineering and if I had kept on my former path I could have made more money. But I hated being stuck in a cubicle all day. I love being a nurse and i'm a correctional nurse, so trust ...
