What to Know When Pursuing Nursing Jobs in Idaho

While Idaho has historically lacked the level of racial diversity seen in other states, recent demographics suggest significant increases in the state’s cultural heterogeneity. Recent U.S. Census data shows ID’s cultural index at 35.9%, up from 28.2% in the previous report. To provide fair and equitable care, you’ll need to demonstrate cultural competence when practicing in Idaho.

Around 92.5% of Idaho residents are White, 13.8% are Hispanic or Latino, 1.7% are Asian, 1.7% are Native American, 1% are Black, and 2.8% identify with two or more races. The median age of state residents is 37.8, which is 2 years younger than the national median. Over 10.5% of the population doesn’t have health insurance, and 9.7% of the population lives with a disability, so there’s always a high demand for compassionate nurses in Idaho.

Working in Idaho

The healthcare industry is among Idaho’s major employment sectors, along with transportation, education, and construction occupations. Nearly 46,000 healthcare practitioners work in acute care hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and home health organizations across the state.

For those interested in pursuing a job in acute care, one of the best ways to begin your search is by checking out positions in Idaho’s leading hospitals and medical centers. These include:

You can also find jobs directly with the State of Idaho or on the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare website. Because nearly 9% of Idaho residents have previously served in the armed forces, there are also plenty of Veterans Affairs (VA) nursing jobs for nurses who would like to give back to the military community.

No matter where you choose to work, you’ll be happy to hear that the average work commute in Idaho is only about 20.4 minutes, which is 6 minutes shorter than the national average. Nearly 79% of residents drive alone, 9.9% carpool, and fewer than 1% take public transportation. If you have unique scheduling needs and want to join the other 5.9% of state residents who work from home, you can browse remote nursing jobs to find a position that works for you.

If you’re looking to make the move to Idaho with your family, you can rest easy knowing there are plenty of trustworthy childcare options across the state. Find state-approved providers in your area by taking a look at the IdahoSTARS website. If it’s pet care you’re after, you’ll be able to find plenty of affordable pet sitters to care for your furry friends while on the job.

Living in Idaho

While Idaho might be most famous for its delicious potatoes, the state is also known for its rugged wilderness and natural beauty. Lovers of the great outdoors can spend days off hiking the Ridge to Rivers Trail System, rock climbing at Elephant’s Perch, and kayaking at Boise Whitewater Park.

Nurses who prefer urban life would enjoy touring Boise, the state’s bustling capital. There, it’s easy to find museums, restaurants, parks, and music venues for all to enjoy. Areas like Idaho Falls and Coeur d'Alene offer residents the cozy small-town vibes appreciated after stressful work weeks.

Idaho weather can be extreme, so you’ll want to be prepared for all four seasons. Winters can be frigid, with high annual snowfall and temperatures dropping below -20 degrees. Conversely, summer temperatures are perfect for taking a dip in a local lake, as temperatures can get as high as 100 degrees.

The cost of living in Idaho is 5.5% higher than the national average, so you’ll want to budget appropriately when considering expenses like utilities, transportation, and groceries. The average home price in Idaho is $445,000, and the cost to rent a 2-bedroom apartment sits around $1,120.
