• With 127,000 square-feet, it features 75 all-private acute-care rooms and an adjacent Medical Office Building.

• NNRH is fully accredited by the Joint Commission and licensed by the Nevada Department of Health.
ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
• The City of Elko is the County Seat, and the second largest county in the state. The Elko Township, which includes several neighboring communities, has a population of 34,000.
• Located in the center of Northern Nevada’s Great Basin on Interstate 80, Elko is the largest city between Salt Lake City and Reno. It borders Idaho on the north and Utah on the east. Elko is 300 miles east of Reno, 240 miles west of Salt Lake City, and 250 miles south of Boise. Elko covers 11.5 square miles with an elevation of 5,060 feet. The County's highest elevation point is the majestic Ruby Mountains at 11,000 feet.
• The average family income in Elko is $61,167, the fourth highest in the state of Nevada, where there is no state tax.
• Elko's economic base includes gold mining, cattle ranching, gaming, tourism, government jobs, and a large service industry.
• Elko's Airport offers commercial, general and charter aviation flights.
• Elko also offers 8 shopping mini-malls, four casinos, seven grocery stores, 24 churches, 32 hotels/motels, 50 restaurants, two cinemas with nine theaters and two comprehensive libraries - Elko County Library and the Great Basin College Library, offering nearly 200,000 volumes.
• The Elko County School District has seven elementary schools, four middle schools, two high schools and an Adult Education Program. Great Basin College provides post-secondary educational opportunities.
• The Western Folklife Center is dedicated to the preservation and presentation of the traditional cultures of the American West, with concerts and performances, exhibits, workshops, adult and youth educational programs, as well as the world renowned National Cowboy Poetry Gathering.
• Elko is home to a community orchestra, convention center, theatrical group, the annual County Fair, a Classic Car Show and other community celebrations.
• Elko has eight city parks for many activities including horseshoes, basketball, tennis, soccer, football and baseball, as well as a skateboarding park and a municipal swimming pool.
• Skiing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing are all popular here.
• Fishermen flock here for our resident cold water trout — rainbow, brook and cutthroat — as well as northern pike, bullhead, bass, bluegill, perch and sunfish.
• The scenery here is simply magnificent. Lamoille Canyon offers a closer look at the towering and rugged peaks of the Ruby Mountains. A 13.5-mile paved road carries you around the base of the 11,249-ft. Ruby Dome and up the glacially formed canyon, where hikers can explore more than 100 miles of trails among the alpine lakes, glaciated canyons and rugged peaks of the Ruby Mountains.
• South Fork State Recreation Area, Nevada’s newest state park, is located 10 miles south of Elko and features a 90-foot high dam holding a 2,900-acre reservoir. It’s a popular place for boating, skiing, fishing and swimming.
• Humboldt National Forest features eight wilderness areas, spectacular canyons and old mining camps on its two million acres.
• The 37,632-acre Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge is just 65 miles south of Elko. Marshes, open ponds and islands are surrounded by wet meadows and grassy uplands. Limited waterfowl hunting is allowed, and the refuge is open year-round for largemouth bass and trout. With more than 200 species, bird watching here is excellent. But you might also spot mountain lion, bobcat, mule deer, snakes and coyotes.
