Arizona
There's no place on earth quite like the Grand Canyon State. It's not just our landscapes, which take in tall mountain ranges, swift rivers, grasslands, sand dunes, and cactus forests. It's not just our storied past, which reaches back thousands of years. It's not just our people, a vibrant blend of cultures and traditions. It's all these things, and the way they come together, that make a travel nursing assignment in Arizona a truly unforgettable experience.
Western Arizona
Come sail away in a place that blends pleasant desert sunshine with the cool blue waters of the Colorado River.
Arizona's West Coast is wet and often wild, formed as the mighty Colorado River courses its way south from Hoover Dam to Mexico. Along its shoreline, visitors will find flourishing communities filled with fascinating museums and attractions, water-based activities galore, and natural wonders and habitats protecting the wildlife that proliferates along the river.
North Central Arizona
Mountain Retreats in a Four-Season Playground. Enjoying the cool, pine-scented forests of North Central Arizona, summertime, visitors hike, bike and ride their way along tree-shaded mountain trails. High-country communities invite them to enjoy rodeos and festivals. In fall, they watch the slopes turn red and yellow. And in the winter, high above the cactus-studded desert, they ski at some of the country’s southern-most ski resorts.
Northern Arizona
Sedona's red rocks, Flagstaff's forested mountains, Lake Powell's blue waters and Monument Valley's sandstone spires are some of the natural wonders that await you.
Enigmatic landscapes that captivate the imagination and capture the soul are found throughout Northern Arizona. Here, the mile-deep Grand Canyon slashes its colorful course across 277 miles, the cobalt-blue waters of Lake Powell mark a stunning contrast against the sandstone shoreline, and the flourishing forests of the San Francisco Peaks seem to reach to the sky.
Phoenix & Central Arizona
The Valley of the Sun-made up of Arizona's capital city of Phoenix and surrounding cities such as Chandler, Glendale, Mesa, Paradise Valley, Scottsdale and Tempe-is a place of superlatives.
Central Arizona's desert is home to the Phoenix metropolitan area and its more than 3 million residents. Encompassing more than a thousand square miles, the area amazes with a variety of experiences. For convenience, this section is divided into six areas, each of which has a distinctly different character and slate of activities-Phoenix, the West Valley, Scottsdale and Paradise Valley, the Northeast Valley, the East Valley and Pinal County.
Tucson & Southern Arizona
Replete with natural wonders, history and culture, Southern Arizona has been romancing visitors with its Old West charm for decades.
The region's most populous city is Tucson, thriving with plush golf courses and resorts, flourishing art scenes and historical heritage. With Old West towns and guest ranches, the region is a perfect Arizona getaway for visitors who want to relive the past. Or, for those with an eye to the future, the region is also host to astronomy centers and the futuristic experiment of Biosphere 2. A number of Southern Arizona's rich riparian areas and rugged mountain ranges are also ranked as some of the world's best birding sites.
