Georgia is the largest state east of the Mississippi. It features many different environments; small towns in the mountain and foothill regions up north, large and diverse cities (Atlanta and Savannah), and pretty coastal beaches. The weather is pretty much always warm, although the northern regions do see some snow in the winter.

Like the rest of the country, Georgia is currently facing a nursing shortage. The graying of the population has increased the need for nurses in recent years, and the rate of new nurses entering the workforce has not kept up. In the public health sector in Georgia, for example, providers have been operating at vacancy rates of 20% for nursing positions. The state has dramatically increased funding to recruit new nurses, and more money has been given for scholarships and other incentives. As a result, the number of licenses issued has been rising. Where do Georgia's nurses work? A 1999 survey revealed that most registered nurses work in federal government hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, hospice centers, and for HMO's.
