These positions typically require valid nursing licenses, relevant healthcare experience, and adherence to federal regulations and security protocols. Certification in CPR and experience with detainee healthcare are often preferred.

The roles differ mainly in setting and specific patient care focus, but both are vital in emergency healthcare.

Can I join ICE with no experience?

Joining as an ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officer typically requires relevant law enforcement or immigration experience, as well as passing background checks and training. Entry-level positions may be limited, and candidates often need a high school diploma or equivalent, along with physical fitness and security clearance. Prior experience in law enforcement or related fields can be beneficial but is not always mandatory for certain roles within ICE.
