About This Role
This role puts you in charge of medical operations at a county jail facility, managing both clinical care and administrative duties. You'll work Monday through Friday with weekends off, giving you predictable home time. The position suits experienced LPNs who are ready to step into leadership—you'll oversee a healthcare team, handle day-to-day medical decisions, and set the standard for care quality in a correctional setting. This isn't bedside nursing anymore; it's about directing staff, managing resources, and ensuring protocols run smoothly. You should be someone who thrives taking charge, communicates clearly with your team, and stays calm in a structured environment. Prior experience leading or mentoring other nurses is ideal for this transition into management.
