    Arizona by the Numbers

    Arizona's growth plus winter census pushes ICU overflow into PCUs that recruit travelers to hold it. Monitored beds without monitor-competent staff are just beds, so demand posts fast. Licensing runs through the Nurse Licensure Compact here, so multistate nurses start fast. PCCN certification through AACN marks proven stepdown practice. Arizona projects RN adequacy at or above statewide balance, so the postings are not tracking a headcount gap. They track where the monitored beds are and when: the Phoenix and Tucson systems carry the volume, and the community stepdown and flex units lean on travelers when winter census arrives.
