What to Know When Pursuing Florida Nursing Jobs

More than 23 million people live in Florida — only California and Texas have more residents. Florida also has one of the largest populations of people ages 65 and over. The median age of Florida residents is 42.6, compared to the nation’s median of 39. One factor affecting Florida’s median age? It’s a state where many retirees relocate to.

Reports indicate a great need for skilled people like yourself to fill common positions like:

Be sure cultural competency is in your skill set before applying to nursing jobs — Florida is a diverse state. Approximately 5.4% of residents identify as LGBT, and 24% of that population has children. Around 76% of residents here are White, 28.7% are Hispanic or Latino, 17% are Black, 3.4% are Asian, and 2.5% are two or more races.

There are numerous types of Hispanics and Latinos in Florida, with the largest group being Cubans — Puerto Ricans, South Americans, Mexicans, and Dominicans are the other main groups. More than 30% of households speak a language other than English in this state, so if you're multilingual, be sure to include it on your nursing resume. It can give you an advantage over job seekers who don't have this skill.

Specialty Nursing Jobs in Florida

You can streamline your Florida nursing job search by exploring positions by specialty.

Living in Florida

There’s no doubt about it: Florida has many gorgeous beaches that beckon year-round. You’ve got your choice from the glam of Miami Beach and Palm Beach to the family-friendly Cocoa Beach and Daytona Beach — and everything in between. In addition to the 825 miles of beaches, there are over 7,700 lakes. In fact, you’re never more than 60 miles from a body of water.

If sand isn’t your thing, there are plenty of state and national parks where you can go hiking, biking, camping, horseback riding, and much more. There are also caverns, natural springs, and botanical gardens to enjoy. Make your way down to the Florida Keys and check out the only underwater state park, John Pennekamp State Park, and explore its lively coral reefs.

Don’t forget the other kinds of parks, those of the amusement variety. Central Florida is where you’ll find the big names like Walt Disney World, Busch Gardens, Universal Orlando, and Legoland, but also lesser-known attractions like Spook Hill, Dinosaur World, and Fun Spot America.

Culture and entertainment hot-spots abound throughout the state. Fine art selections include the Dali Museum (St. Petersburg), Zora Neale Hurston National Museum of Fine Arts (Eatonville), and the Norton Museum of Art (West Palm Beach). For performing arts, you can check out the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota, the Florida Theatre in Jacksonville, and the Adrienne Arsht Center in Miami. If you’re looking for nightlife, South Beach and Miami have well-known party scenes, but there’s also plenty of fun to be had at the clubs in Tampa, Jacksonville, Key West, and Fort Lauderdale.
