Will my compact RN license work for this Colorado assignment?
Yes—an active multistate RN license covers this assignment because Colorado is a Nurse Licensure Compact state. For endorsement, know Colorado’s fingerprint rule: a background check from a previous application can’t be reused, because prints must be submitted specifically for the Colorado nursing application. Our Colorado Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
What kind of hospital will an RN be working in at Valley View Hospital?

What specialty units shape RN assignments at Valley View Hospital?
For its size, Valley View carries unusual depth: a comprehensive cancer center, interventional cardiology with cardiac catheterization labs, and neurosurgical care, so RNs see oncology, cardiac, and neuro cases alongside med-surg, ICU, surgical, and birth-center work.
What quality recognition should an RN know about at Valley View Hospital?
Valley View earned a CMS five-star overall quality rating (most recently for a second consecutive year) and U.S. News high-performing recognition in heart arrhythmia care.
What professional support does Valley View Hospital offer nurses?
Valley View runs a nurse-residency program and, as a destination-care hospital, draws patients to Glenwood Springs from beyond its immediate region — context that gives a small hospital a varied caseload.
What EMR will an RN chart in at Valley View Hospital?
Valley View has been transitioning to Epic (MyChart) during 2026; confirm whether your unit is live on Epic at the time of assignment.
