Today Raquel and Michelle speak with Sandy, a correctional nurse that gives amazing insight to working in a high-stress environment with incarcerated people. We learn what a "prison pocket" is, the boundaries some people that work with incarcerated people cross and why, and how to maintain your own mental health while working in a correctional facility (hint: it's all about self-care!)
Come and learn and laugh with Raquel, Michelle and Sandy. The United States has the highest level of incarceration in the world. It's important we all know a little bit about this big problem.
