West Virginia Healthcare Jobs

West Virginia is the only state which entirely lies within the area served by the Appalachian Regional Commission, which is a common definition of “Appalachia”. For this reason it is nicknamed The Mountain State. While West Virginians recognize that their state is part of Appalachia, many do not welcome the term for purposes of self-identification. The Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest on earth, having formed over 300 million years ago. The state is noted for its great natural beauty, its historically significant logging and coal mining industries and its labor history. It is also well known as a tourist destination for healthcare travelers interested in outdoor activities such as skiing, whitewater rafting, rock climbing, fishing, hiking, and hunting. The highest point in the state is atop Spruce Knob; it lies within the Monongahela National Forest and is a part of the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area. A total of six wilderness areas can also be found within the forest. Outside the forest to the south, the New River Gorge is a 1,000-foot deep canyon carved by the New River. The National Park Service manages a portion of the gorge and river that has been designated as the New River Gorge National River, one of only 15 rivers in the U.S. with this level of protection.

Healthcare traveler tourist sites include the New River Gorge Bridge, Harpers Ferry National Historical Park and many state parks. The Greenbrier hotel and resort, originally built in 1778, has long been considered a premier hotel frequented by numerous world leaders and U.S. Presidents over the years. West Virginia is also home to the Green Bank Telescope at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory. Music institutions in West Virginia include the Mountaineer Opera House in Milton and the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, founded in 1939, as the Charleston Civic Orchestra, before becoming the Charleston Symphony Orchestra in 1943. The park system in West Virginia has grown to 36 parks and 2 rail trails since the dedication of the Droop Mountain Battlefield as the first state park on July 4, 1928. Festivals in West Virginia include, the town of Glenville has long been home to the annual West Virginia State Folk Festival, All Good Music Festival in Masontown, Appalachian String Band Festival in Clifftop, Avalon Nude Music and Arts Festival in Paw Paw, Dvorak/Gershwin Black History Month Festival in Charleston, Elkhenge Music Festival in East Dailey, West Virginia State Folk Festival in Glenville and Zendik Music Festival in Marlinton.
