Results of a survey of 287 correctional nurses are reported. This report focuses on the differences in correctional nursing, health care needs of prisoners, and training needs of correctional nurses. To establish the context for the study, scholarship on job satisfaction and stress within the nursing profession, and on the unique context of correctional nursing is summarized. Demographic variables of the surveyed nurses are described. Content analysis was performed on the responses. Implications for retention, education, and professional development of correctional nurses are explored.
