CorrHealth is thrilled to welcome Rommy Sosa-Mladenka as our new Regional Manager for Texas. She brings with her nearly three decades of diverse experience in the healthcare sector. Her journey from a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) to a registered nurse (RN) and various administrative roles emphasizes a deep commitment to patient care and healthcare management.
A Seamless Transition into Correctional Healthcare
Rommy began her nursing career in 2012, spending over a decade as an LVN before advancing to an RN. Her extensive background is not just limited to nursing but spans across front desk operations and crucial management roles, making her a versatile leader within our organization. Drawn to CorrHealth by a longstanding interest in correctional nursing (a passion fueled by her peers already in the field), she found the opportunity with CorrHealth to be a perfect fit. The unique challenges and rewards of correctional healthcare have inspired her to embrace and drive change within this specialized environment.

The experience equipped her with the ability to lead teams effectively, enabling improvements in daily operations that directly benefited patient outcomes. She is driven by a relentless pursuit of knowledge and innovation, always seeking new ways to enhance patient care and the efficiency of the teams she works with.
Her motivation stems from a deep-seated belief in acting in the best interest of patients and her team, embracing CorrHealth’s core value of “Doing Right.” This principle resonates with her personal and professional principle that every patient deserves respect, dignity, and the highest standard of care, irrespective of their circumstances.
