Hey chad, You couldn't pick a more attractive area to live in. The surrounding area is trees, trees, trees. I'm a snow boarder and it doesn't get much better then Whitefish Mountain Resort. Well, KRMC is the biggest hospital in the area, but the wages in Montana are not that great. Starting you would make $19-$20/hr. Kalispell/Whitefish is a fairly expensive place to live. I recommend that you rent a house first. This will save you lots of problems if you decide KRMC is not for you. KRMC is a good place to work, but you have to get through the small town politics at the hospital, (mostly administration) first! I would have left after a few months as a friend of mine did, but i bought a house. But I stuck it out and things did get better. If you decide to work at KRMC holla back and I can get you some good info and good nurses to talk to.
