Memphis, TN—"Home of the Blues"

Memphis, Tennessee—where there are more sunny days than Miami, the streets are filled with music, and Southern cooking is always just around the corner. For those looking for an exciting, soulful city, Memphis is the perfect place! Memphis is home to some of the most respected hospitals like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and Baptist Memorial Hospital, which attract top-tier healthcare professionals and cutting-edge technology. In addition to a great city for healthcare professionals to work, Memphis is also a great place to spend your time off.

Memphis, often referred to as the “Home of the Blues,” is the epicenter of the blues and rock n’ roll. Whether you’re catching a live performance on Beale Street or visiting Sun Studio, where artists like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and B.B. King got their start, you’ll be surrounded by the heartbeat of American music.
Memphis is famously home to Graceland, Elvis Presley’s home. As the second most-visited home in the U.S., Graceland is a must-see for any music lover. Touring the mansion gives you a glimpse into the life of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, complete with memorabilia, Elvis’ iconic outfits, and his legendary cars.

Much like its music scene, Memphis’ food scene is nothing short of legendary. With famous Memphis-style barbecue at spots like Central BBQ or The Bar-B-Q Shop and trendy restaurants in Cooper-Young and Downtown Memphis, Memphis offers a range of delicious options. From comfort food to gourmet dining, Memphis’ culinary scene is bursting with flavor and creativity.

Memphis sits on the gorgeous Mississippi River which means water activities, beautiful views, and river walks. Outdoor enthusiasts will also love Memphis for its parks, hiking and biking trails, and endless outdoor recreational activities. Memphis is also perfectly located for exploring other major Southern cities. Want a weekend adventure? Head to Nashville, New Orleans, or Atlanta, all just a short trip away.

Memphis is more than just a city—it’s a vibrant experience waiting for travel nurses to explore. From world-class healthcare to electrifying music, unbeatable barbecue, and outdoor adventures, Memphis has everything you need for both career growth and unforgettable memories.
