Armor Correctional Health Services began its transformative journey in 2004 with a vision to revolutionize healthcare in correctional environments. Over the past two decades, it has become a leading provider of healthcare services in jails, prisons, and federal facilities across various states, setting new standards in the field of correctional healthcare.
The inception of this company in 2004 marked the start of an ambitious mission to offer superior healthcare services tailored to the unique environment of correctional facilities. By 2005, just a year after its founding, it had secured its first significant contract with a county jail, demonstrating its commitment and capability in this specialized sector. This initial success laid the groundwork for further expansion and growth.
In 2006, the company extended its services beyond Florida, forming partnerships with Department of Corrections state prison clients. This expansion was critical in broadening its impact and reach across the country. Remarkable achievements and recognition marked the following years. Between 2007 and 2009, it was honored with the prestigious NCCHC Program and Facility of the Year award, a testament to its excellence in delivering quality healthcare in correctional settings.
Continuing its growth trajectory, in 2010, the company diversified its portfolio by securing contracts for private, secure detention facilities and providing services to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This expansion not only widened its service offerings but also reflected its adaptability and responsiveness to the evolving needs of the correctional healthcare sector.
By 2015-2018, it had achieved a significant milestone, serving over one million patients. This achievement underscored the scale and impact of its operations, solidifying its position as a leader in the industry. Under the leadership of Chairman and CEO Otto Campo, the company has continued to innovate and excel, driven by a dedicated team of over 600 employees. Their commitment to delivering compassionate and comprehensive care to incarcerated individuals nationwide remains unwavering, demonstrating a deep understanding of the complexities and challenges of healthcare within correctional environments.
