PCU Travel Nurse Job in Franklin, NC | Nights (3x12)

Gem mines dot the valley around Franklin, NC, a Macon County seat deep in the southern Appalachians where visitors still sluice for rubies and sapphires in the old mining tradition. This hospital serves the surrounding mountain communities, with travel contracts blending emergency department coverage and broad inpatient floor work. Downtown keeps gem shops, cafes, and a small-town mountain rhythm. Waterfalls stack along the Cullasaja gorge minutes east, with the Appalachian Trail crossing the county's high ridges. A rental runs low by mountain-town standards, though a good place is still best lined up well ahead of the famously busy leaf season. The drive to Asheville runs roughly seventy-five minutes northeast. The Great Smokies' quieter southern entrances wait inside an hour of driving.
