Travel nursing salutes America’s birthplace

Philadelphia, one of America’s oldest and most historically significant cities was dubbed by Quaker, William Penn (1644-1718) in 1681 as the City of Brotherly Love. It is home to Independence Hall where the U.S. Constitution was drafted and signed, and where hangs The Liberty Bell, adopted by abolitionists as a symbol of freedom and the end to slavery. Now the fifth most populous city in the U.S., Philadelphia was once the nation’s capitol from 1790 to 1800. 

Travel nursing opportunities in and around Philadelphia have never been better with travel nurse jobs and physical therapist jobs plentiful and high-paying. The city’s recent focus on parks and recreation is revitalized with “GreenPlan Philadelphia” and its downtown area is full of great restaurants, museums, art galleries, and entertainment venues.

Sports fans love the 76ers and the Eagles, and most greasy spoon fanatics are intimate with the legendary Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich. Other gastronomic inventions created by city dwellers include the hoagie, soft pretzels, and ‘scrapple’ made famous by the Pennsylvania Dutch. Big city travel nursing is at home here, as a hot cup of coffee, hearty sandwiches, and thin-slice pizza can be found on both sides of the street day or night.
