When planning your fall travel assignment, it can be overwhelming to figure out where to go. One way to help you narrow it down is to ask yourself: do you want a small town, a big city, or something in between? Each has its own unique benefits.
Fall Travel Assignments: Small Town, Big City, or Something In Between:
Small Town
As days start to cool and leaves start to change, the first thought that might come to mind is a cuddly sweatshirt and pumpkin décor. Choosing a small town for your next assignment can give you the full fall experience of a Hallmark movie with apple orchards and pumpkin patches. There are countless rural hospitals throughout the United States looking for nurses. Working in a small-town hospital might provide a nice change from the hustle and bustle of a big city.
An extra benefit, if you enjoy the outdoors, is that working in a rural area can put you closer to the great outdoors, where you can experience the changing of the season firsthand. So, if you want a small-town experience in the Midwest, Mountain regions, or anywhere else with fall festivals and corn mazes, use Furnished Finder to find a place to stay that will put you in the middle of all the small-town activities.
Big City
If small-town life is not your cup of tea or cup of pumpkin spice, you can look to a big city for your fall travel nurse assignment. Many of the nation’s largest and most prestigious hospitals can be found in big cities, such as Boston’s Children’s Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts, or Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri. Working at one of these facilities can surely boost your resume and your nursing skills. On your days off, you will never be short of places to explore or things to see.
The big city may not have pumpkin patches or corn mazes nearby, but if you are looking for a haunted experience this fall, big cities such as Portland, New Orleans, and Chicago are full of ghost sightings. Just use Furnished Finder to ensure your newest housing location is not a nightmare.
Something In-Between
If the hustle and bustle of the city is too much for you, but a small town is too quiet, a midsize town might be perfect. A midsize town like Raleigh, North Carolina, or Colorado Springs, Colorado, has the best of both worlds. You are still in a metropolis area with all the shops and convenience of a big city, but less traffic. Plus, you are conveniently closer to small towns and outdoor areas. Nursing opportunities are still abundant in midsize towns and may offer the opportunity to work in a larger medical facility or something smaller.
A midsize town can also be close enough to a big city that you can easily drive to see and experience all the big city has to offer without the hassle of driving through the traffic to work every day. Small-town experiences can be just outside a midsize city as well, allowing you to enjoy the best small-town fall festivals without having to live in solitude. Furnished Finder can help you find the perfect place between a small town and a large city.
Conclusion
Fall is one of the most exciting seasons. There is so much to do and experience. When you are searching for your next fall travel assignment, think about what type of experience you want to have: a small town, a big city, or maybe even both. Midsize towns are a great way to experience the best of both worlds. Whatever you choose, Furnished Finder has a vast availability of rentals that will suit your travel nurse needs.
