Metropolis or small town? Tucson can’t seem to decide and instead offers the best of both – progress and innovation in a friendly, caring atmosphere. Blessed with the natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert and an unsurpassed climate of 360 sunny days a year, Tucsonans embrace a rare lifestyle and are committed to preserving that quality of life.
The incredible year round weather also makes Arizona, as a whole, one of the prime states in need of travel nurses. Hospitals throughout the state see major census changes in winter months making temporary staff a must have.
With the statewide demand for travel nurses, Tucson is one of the most popular choices for assignment locations. The reason why it’s so popular is simple — from legendary golf courses to renowned day spas Tucson offers residents and visitors a chance to get out and exercise and then revitalize. There is also plenty of old west history and unique culture. Not to mention all of the jaw-dropping scenery of cactus forests, rolling hills, and craggy mountains.
Tucson has a history of valuing quality of life over development, which sets it apart from many other big city areas. Sharing this belief is one of the area’s major healthcare facilities and one of Cross Country’s exclusive travel nursing facility client – Tucson Medical Center (TMC).
Tucson Medical Center, part of a system known as TMC HealthCare, has become one of the 300 largest hospitals in the country and the largest in Southern Arizona..

TMC remains the first Tucson hospital named to the national list of 100 Top Hospitals.
