just trying to find out how prison healthcare works in canada ( vancouver). Here in UK I have worked a a qualified nurse in prison healthcare and would like to look into working in that environment when we get to vancouver. I've tried looking it up on google but am probably using the wrong search words as the 'system' is a bit different over there i believe - Municipal and provincial jails ( not sure of the difference!)

So in short - does anyone know if they have nurses in Prisons in canada? and if so how can I find out about jobs etc

Thanks
