Life outside the hospital: things to do in Minnesota
Minnesota isn't called the Land of 10,000 Lakes for nothing! There's plenty to do on your days off, whether you're on a short-term contract or settling in for a longer assignment:
Get outdoors
The Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota is one of the most popular paddling and camping destinations in the country, with more than a thousand lakes and streams connected by portage trails. If you'd rather stay closer to the Twin Cities, Minnehaha Falls offers a scenic waterfall and walking paths just minutes from downtown Minneapolis.
For a different kind of scenery, drive up the North Shore along Lake Superior, where you'll find state parks, rocky overlooks, and waterfalls like those at Gooseberry Falls State Park.
Explore the Twin Cities
Minneapolis and St. Paul offer museums, live music, and one of the largest urban lake systems in the country. The Mall of America in nearby Bloomington is the largest shopping mall in the U.S. and includes an indoor amusement park, aquarium, and mini-golf course, which is a fun stop whether or not you're a shopper.
Families and kids-at-heart can also check out the Minnesota Children's Museum in St. Paul, which features hands-on exhibits designed to make learning playful.

Minnesota registered nurse jobs FAQ
What are the requirements to become an RN in Minnesota?
You'll need to graduate from an approved nursing program, pass the NCLEX-RN exam, and apply for licensure through the Minnesota Board of Nursing, which includes a criminal background check.
Is Minnesota a Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) state?
Not yet. Minnesota has enacted Nurse Licensure Compact legislation, but it has not been implemented, so the state is not currently an active NLC member. That means nurses with a multistate compact license from another state still need to obtain a separate Minnesota license to practice here.
What types of RN jobs are available in Minnesota?
Openings typically include per diem shifts, travel assignments, local contract roles, and permanent full-time positions across specialties and facility types throughout the state.
