At CorrHealth, the success of our team is driven by individuals who work tirelessly behind the scenes to support our mission and values. Today, we’re excited to highlight the incredible work of Jerika Trujillo, our People & Culture Coordinator. Jerika plays a vital role in ensuring that our team members feel supported and that operations within our People & Culture department run smoothly. Her journey with CorrHealth, coupled with her commitment to “Do Right,” makes her an integral part of our team.

At CorrHealth, our mission to “Do Right” extends far beyond providing exceptional healthcare within correctional facilities. We are deeply committed to making a difference in the communities we serve. In 2024, this commitment translated into over $41,000 in donations, sponsorships, and contributions that supported meaningful causes and brought positive change to countless lives.

The opioid epidemic is a highly significant public health crisis ongoing in the United States, claiming the lives of tens of thousands across the country yearly. Some of the most vulnerable yet most commonly overlooked populations involved in this crisis are incarcerated individuals. It has been found through research that there is a high representation of people with substance use disorder within correctional facilities. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) programs have emerged as an important intervention to address opioid use disorder among incarcerated populations, offering a path toward recovery, reducing recidivism, and enhancing public safety.

At CorrHealth, we are proud to introduce Adrian Johnson, our Health Services Administrator (HSA), at our Sandoval County Jail partner facility in New Mexico. Adrian brings over two decades of healthcare experience, dedication, and passion for making a difference in correctional healthcare. His journey into this field is inspiring, and his role is vital in ensuring smooth daily operations and high-quality care for our patients.

Every successful team thrives with the dedication and skills of professionals like Addie Vigil, the Charge Nurse at our Garfield County facility. Addie’s commitment, expertise, and supportive role contribute to the seamless operation of the medical team, ensuring patient care and teamwork are always prioritized.
