As a Licensed Practical Nurse in a correctional care setting, you’ll play a crucial role in providing comprehensive healthcare services to incarcerated individuals, promoting their well-being and rehabilitation. This position works in partnership with a team of correctional staff and allows you to make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients. Responsibilities include:

Responding to medical emergencies and providing immediate interventions as needed

Educating patients on self-care techniques and promoting health education within the correctional facility

Correctional care positions can often offer healthcare professionals more independence in how they practice and the ability to grow professionally.

Plus, you’ll have the confidence of knowing you’ll receive:

COMPENSATION that is competitive, negotiable, and paid weekly
HOURLY PAY with overtime opportunities

REIMBURSEMENT for travel and other incidentals
PAID TIME OFF that is flexible to your needs
EXPERT SUPPORT for compliance, credentialing/licensure, and CEU
MENTORING and supervision specific to the travel nurse experience

Enjoy tailored career support from those who understand the ins and outs of corrections placements and who can support you throughout your assignment.

Along with the support of AMS in the lead-up to your assignment (e.g., credentialing, negotiating pay, etc.), we also have a team of coaches you can connect with throughout your assignment for advice, training and development, or just to network. Like you, these advisors are AMS clinicians who have a passion for high-quality care, knowledge-sharing, and the agency experience in corrections.

We want you to feel as empowered as possible. Which is why, for over 20 years, we have helped healthcare professionals like you grow and chart a new course in their careers. Take the first step with AMS and experience what so many members of our correctional medical team have before you:

You have a lot of options when it comes to who you partner with, and we understand that. So, as you head out and discover what is next, consider the WHOLE experience you want to have. American Medical Staffing is not just along for the ride or there for one assignment. We want to help you create genuine moments in your career that are authentic, empowering, and extraordinary.
