Why Work in Correctional Medicine?

• Correctional Medicine is a highly specialized field that affords the opportunity to practice internal and emergency medicine.
• Our medical team cares for patients with a wide range of needs and conditions. This includes acute pathology, chronic diseases, detoxification, and end of life care to name a few.
• Correctional physicians do not have to deal with the challenges of the administrative management of insurance and/or private practice. This means freedom from coding, billing, and insurance hassles.
• Correctional facilities are highly structured environments with comprehensive and strict safety and security protocols. At CPS Healthcare, the safety of all our medical staff is always a top priority and you can expect to feel safe and supported in a correctional work environment.
• Unlike other clinical settings, working hours are fixed and predictable.
• Our team works to make a positive difference not only in the lives of incarcerated individuals but in the community. The care we provide helps reduce the burden of disease in our communities and increases public safety.
