You would be walking into Wabash Valley Correctional Facility in Carlisle, where Centurion runs healthcare for the Indiana Department of Correction.
The work is primary and specialty care inside the fence—vitals, labs, EKGs, minor procedures—and some roles stretch into infirmary-style loads or mental health RN work at other Centurion DOC sites. Schedules are concrete: nights 5:30pm–6:00am three days a week with rotating weekends, weekday day shifts, or a working-supervisor mix of floor time and 8:00am–4:30pm admin. Travel RNs in Indiana float across facilities and have been advertised up to about $2,685/week with a non-taxed stipend. Our own postings cluster near $40/hour median; employer RN ranges elsewhere in the company have been stated at $40–$50/hour depending on experience. You will need a security clearance, drug screen, and background check. Corrections experience is preferred, not required. Nurses often mention purpose and learning; they also report staffing pressure, uneven management, and work-life balance that scores in the mid-2s on major review sites.
Company materials frame the work as correctional healthcare with purpose, variety, and—at some locations—work/life balance; internal nursing awards recognize staff.
