A correctional LPN/LVN is a licensed practical nurse or licensed vocational nurse who specializes in providing healthcare services to incarcerated patients in correctional facilities, under the supervision of a registered nurse or physician. Correctional LPNs treat inmate patients with the same level of care as they would at any hospital or clinic but with stricter protocols and heightened safety measures in place. Despite complex challenges and various limitations on the nurse-patient relationship, correctional LPNs often find it rewarding to support the needs of an underserved population.

Correctional LPN/LVNs may hold Basic Life Support (BLS) or NCCHC Certified Correctional Health Professional (CCHP), among others.
