Consider North Carolina for Your Next Travel Nursing Job
If you’re a travel nurse looking for your next assignment, we suggest you strongly consider North Carolina for your next travel nursing job. Known as the “Tar Heel” state (a named derived from the state’s history as a producer of tar, pitch, and rosin, all of which come from its pine forests), North Carolina has a tremendous amount to offer travel nurses. Here’s a short list of why North Carolina is a great place for travel nurses:
Unique, distinct geography
There are three landforms that generally make up North Carolina: the Coastal Plain, the Piedmont and the Appalachian Mountains. The Coastal Plain is low, flat land that extends along the Atlantic Ocean and offers over 300 miles of white sandy beaches that are among the most popular in the US. The central Piedmont area is characterized by hilly, rolling land that borders the Coastal Plain, and is famous for its fertile farming. The gorgeous Appalachian Mountains, the largest range in the eastern United States, stretch the length of the state to form the “backbone” of North Carolina. These distinct geographic areas help travel nurses to enjoy beautiful, diverse geography all within a reasonable car ride.
Comfortable year-round climate
North Carolina’s moderate climate is characterized by mild winters, long pleasant periods of spring and fall, and warm summers. For those travel nurses that want to avoid harsh weather extremes, North Carolina offers a welcome respite any time of year.
Reasonable Cost of Living
For travel nurses that want to make the most of their weekly paycheck, North Carolina’s a great destination. North Carolina’s cost of living rivals that of many states across the country. From housing and utilities to everyday supplies and groceries, and from transportation to health care, North Carolina’s cost of living is below the national average based on the ACCRA Cost of Living Index.
Easy to get around
North Carolina has the second largest state-maintained highway system in the nation and four international airports. North Carolina also maintains the largest ferry system on the East Coast. The State’s Amtrak offers daily service to North Carolina’s major cities like Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte, and nine other North Carolina cities.
