    generalRN2008 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Correctional

    It takes months to get into shape for that. They tell you to train for it. I did it and saw some really obese but in shape people have great times. If you go over max time limit, they give one repeat chance. Fail that, you get flown home and job ...

14. Nursing at BOP Facility

    generalRN2008 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Correctional

    Yeah you stay there the whole time. There is a rigorous physical test there the first or second day. Running, obstacles course, stairs with wearing a weighted vest, dummy drag. All of it is timed. Get in shape or no job.

    generalRN2008 replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Correctional

    I did. Mostly male dominated throughout. There are 88 agencies training at the same location. Some are there for months while BOP is only 3 weeks. You stay in a dorm and eat chow hall food. If you miss the bus, big trouble too.
