Serving communities well beyond the metro, out across New Mexico's central high desert, Albuquerque, NM supports a regional healthcare network. University of New Mexico Hospital and Presbyterian Hospital handle much of the inpatient care, with travel coverage concentrated on the medical-surgical floors and in the emergency department. Rio Rancho and Los Lunas are common picks for a straightforward commute while staying close to assignments. On a day off, many travelers head to Old Town or catch the views from the Sandia foothills, with the Sandia Peak Tramway an easy outing on a longer break. The metro stays easy to get around without big-city sprawl, and the dry high-desert climate keeps the drive simple most of the year.
