District of Columbia Healthcare Jobs
The nation’s capitol is calling for your next medical travel job. The federal district was named the District of Columbia because Columbia was a poetic name for the United States used at the time, which was close to the 300th anniversary of Christopher Columbus’ first voyage to the Americas in 1492. The District of Columbia, founded on July 16, 1790, is a federal district as specified by Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution. The land forming the original District came from the state of Maryland and Commonwealth of Virginia. The centers of all three branches of the U.S. government are located in the District. Communities were amalgamated to the City of Washington, which thus became coextensive with the District of Columbia so that a separate County of Washington was no longer needed, so it was abolished. The District of Columbia and the city of Washington are governed by a single municipal government and for most practical purposes, are considered to be the same entity.
The state is home to numerous national landmarks and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the United States. The world famous Smithsonian Institution is located in the District, as well as, the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, National World War II Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial, District of Columbia War Memorial, Albert Einstein Memorial and United States Navy Memorial, National Gallery of Art, National Museum of Women in the Arts, Corcoran Gallery of Art and the Phillips Collection. With all these tourist destinations, you’ll have plenty to do during your healthcare travel job in DC.
