ABOUT THE ROLE

Correctional Medical Management is hiring a Registered Nurse for day-shift weekend employment at the Minnehaha County Jail. Working Friday through Sunday, you’ll deliver full clinical care — assessments, emergency response, chronic disease management, and more — to an incarcerated population with real healthcare needs and limited access to services.

If your weekdays are full but you're looking for a meaningful role with standout compensation, this role was designed for you. The schedule is fixed, the team is supportive, and the work is genuinely impactful.

IS THIS YOU?

• Your weekdays are committed elsewhere, but you want a substantive clinical role.

• You want a fixed, predictable schedule — the same three days every week.

• You find purpose in caring for patients who have limited healthcare access.

• You value autonomy and work well with a team that trusts your judgment.

• You communicate clearly and stay focused during emergencies.

• You hold yourself accountable and take pride in the care you deliver.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Provide direct nursing care to incarcerated patients

• Administer medications and obtain diagnostic tests

• Perform assessments and deliver health education

• Respond to medical emergencies

• Manage acute and chronic health conditions, adjusting care plans as needed

• Evaluate patient behaviors, symptoms, and responses to medications and treatments

• Assist with medical procedures

• Prepare and maintain accurate records, charts, and reports

• Build and sustain professional relationships with patients, staff, and the public

WHY SWITCH TO CORRECTIONAL NURSING?

Some nurses are ready for something different — a role where the schedule is consistent, the team is stable, and the work is genuinely meaningful.

Correctional nursing offers full clinical engagement with a population that has real, complex healthcare needs and limited access to care. You'll use your skills every shift, make independent decisions, and see the impact of your work firsthand.

If you're looking for purpose, autonomy, and a schedule you can actually plan around, this is worth a closer look.
