Residents are preferred (2020 & 2021). Candidates (in practice) that have an inconsistent work history will not be considered ( at least 3-5 years with each facility they have worked at ). This is why we prefer residents. We will consider foreign trained (American Residency/Fellowship) candidates as long as they are US citizens.

Community offers a high quality of life and low cost of living. It's a great and safe place to raise a family - a small town atmosphere with all the big city conveniences.
