[1] Warm Springs is in Carson City and is the smallest of the seven major institutions of the Nevada Department of Corrections.

Its name comes from the historical hotel built at the site by Abraham Curry, who was later the first warden of the Nevada State Prison.

It was constructed in 1961 and was known as the Nevada Women’s Correctional Center until September 1997, when it was converted to a medium security men’s prison in 1998, then to a minimum custody facility in July 2003, before being converted back to a men's medium custody institution in July 2008.

It has four operating housing units divided into wings, two towers, and a core services building that houses the kitchens and cafeteria, infirmary, education facilities, law library, and gym.

Carson City School District and Western Nevada College provide education to inmates.
