Travel Registered Nurse Corrections Job

Embark on a dynamic journey as a Travel Registered Nurse in Corrections, delivering essential, compassionate care within a correctional setting that demands clinical excellence, tact, and steadiness under pressure. Your expertise will guide inmates toward better health outcomes, while your collaboration with interdisciplinary teams ensures safety, privacy, and dignity for every patient. This isn’t just a job—it’s a vocation where your clinical skill intersects with influential, tangible care that directly affects lives. Imagine the impact you can make, advocating for health, navigating complex needs, and empowering individuals through consistent, respectful treatment. Ohio’s Cleveland area serves as your base for a multi‑week assignment that blends meaningful clinical work with the opportunity to explore the region’s diverse landscapes. From Lake Erie’s shimmering shores to the green expanses of nearby parks and trails, Ohio offers striking contrasts: vibrant urban culture in Cleveland, intimate communities beyond, and easy access to outdoor adventures that refresh the mind after a demanding shift. The state’s rich history and dynamic arts scene provide inspiring settings to unwind, learn, and connect with colleagues who share your dedication.

Location Benefits: Working in Cleveland places you at the heart of a thriving healthcare ecosystem. You’ll partner with facilities known for robust medical programs, innovative practice standards, and a commitment to inmate wellness and safety. The city’s neighborhoods each convey a unique vibe—from lakeside views to revitalized districts—offering a stimulating backdrop for your professional life and personal interests. For those who crave mobility, this role also opens the door to assignments across the United States, delivering variety in clinical environments, exposure to diverse populations, and opportunities to build a broad professional network. Cleveland’s accessibility, affordable living, and cultural richness create a balanced setting where you can deliver excellent care while enjoying life outside the locker room and clinic. In addition, Ohio’s scenic getaways—waterfronts, forested trails, and quiet refuges—provide convenient escapes to recharge between shifts.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Travel RN in Corrections, your core responsibilities include triage, comprehensive assessments, medication administration, wound and infection care, chronic disease management, mental health support, preventive screening, and urgent care for acute episodes. You’ll document findings precisely in electronic health records, coordinate with facility physicians, and collaborate with security and intake teams to maintain safety and confidentiality. Your clinical judgment will guide care planning, with emphasis on infection control, pain management, and continuity of care, especially during transitions in custody or releases to community providers. The role emphasizes professional growth within corrections nursing—opportunities to specialize in behavioral health, geriatric care within inmate populations, or case management to improve long‑term outcomes. You’ll have access to a competitive employment package, including a bonus eligibility, housing assistance, and the possibility of contract extensions that align with facility needs and your career goals. A dedicated, 24/7 support team stands by as you travel with the company, ensuring seamless logistics, safety, and rapid assistance whenever you need it. Weekly pay ranges from $2,061 to $2,146, reflecting the value of your expertise and the demanding, dynamic nature of correctional care. While this assignment is listed with Weeks as the duration, you can anticipate a well‑structured schedule designed to maximize clinical impact and learning, with the potential to extend or transition based on performance, facility requirements, and personal preferences. Please note: hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process.
