Hello Class,
I drove about forty-five minutes outside my city to survey a small rural community. The reason I chose this area, in particular, is because I noticed travel nursing jobs were in abundance in this area. I drove there to view the city and its surrounding areas. I wanted to know why there was such a need for nurses here.
The first thing I noticed was that there was a lot of farmland and the houses were quite a distance from one another. During my travel, I did not see any subdivisions or sidewalks. At least not in the area I was in. I remember passing two schools, an elementary and a middle school. I had to stop for gas, so I was able to locate a gas station after driving an additional eight to ten miles from the schools. Believe it or not, I did not even spot a Walmart, and we all know if we cannot find anything else, there’s going to be a Walmart nearby! Not one anywhere in sight! After driving another fifteen minutes, I finally reached their “downtown” area. Here, I was able to see a small plaza. Inside it, there was an urgent care center, a drugstore, a grocery store, and a hardware store. I did not see a hospital in the area, so I googled it, and there was one in a nearby city twenty minutes away. I do not know what they did for past time because I did not see any movie theaters, bowling alleys, or sports bars.

There were a couple of challenges and barriers I would like to point out. One is the limited access to healthcare. It is not uncommon for rural areas to have fewer healthcare facilities, medical professionals, and specialized services, leading to challenges in accessing timely and comprehensive healthcare. The lack of public transportation and the long distances can make it difficult for residents to access essential services such as healthcare, education, and employment opportunities. This can lead to a snowball effect. Now the lack of transportation can cause social isolation. This may contribute to higher rates of mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress.
