National Conference on Correctional Health Care 2026

The 2026 conference takes place at Paris Las Vegas.

The organizer lists clinical and mental health providers, health services leaders, quality and compliance professionals, public health specialists, correctional-sector professionals, and policy, legal, and oversight roles.

It is worth it for correctional clinicians, health services administrators and quality or compliance staff, since the attendee mix spans physicians, nurses, mental health and substance use providers, pharmacists, dentists, custody staff and lawyers, and the 50th edition stresses practical strategies for jails and prisons. Clinicians who do not work in or with detention settings would get less from it, because the program is built around correctional standards, risk and compliance.

Attendees at correctional health conferences usually wear business casual, such as slacks and collared shirts, with some custody and administrative staff in suits, and Las Vegas conference hotels are heavily air-conditioned, so a light layer helps.
