What is the RN job market like in Denver 2012

Published

My husband is interviewing for a position in Denver, so we are considering moving there. What is the currrent job market for RN's in Denver? I am interested in Swedish or Porter Hospital, but would obviously consider other hospitals. I have been an RN since 2006. Worked almost 2 years in a hospital Med/Surg unit. Worked 3 years in an outpatient Oncology setting. Now work home health. I am really concerned about not having much hospital experience. Any information would be helpful! Thanks. For those who live in Denver, do you like living there. I have never lived in a big city, so it intimidates me. Thanks again

Are you set on a hospital or are you interested in home health type work?

I would probably rather work in a hospital unless I could do home health in one particular area of Denver. I am hoping to work closer to where I end up living. I am interested in moving to Englewood, wheatridge, lakewood, highlands (not highland park)- Honestly we are not very familiar yet with Denver or the hospitals that would be good to work at, so any information would be useful. I would really like to work in Oncology again- that would be my ideal job. Thx
