Prison nurses do relatively little. In fact, Correctional Medical Services, the largest private medical provider of incarceration facilities in the US prefers they do as close to nothing as possible to maximize profits.

Those nurses who do perform to the ethics of their profession typically hand out medications, take vitals, triage sick call patients, and provide the occasional emergency treatment as required.
