John F. Kennedy Memorial Hospital

John F. Kennedy Memorial Hospital is an acute-care facility located in Indio, California. The JFK Memorial Hospital offers a variety of services not limited to orthopedic and joint replacement services, cardiovascular care, maternity care, ambulatory surgery, and imaging services. Owned by Tenet Healthcare, JFK Memorial is one of three hospitals in Coachella Valley. It is also one of the state’s busiest maternity wards.

Home of the epic Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, Indio has appropriately been nicknamed the City of Festivals. While Coachella may be one of the biggest, Indio does host other cultural events throughout the year. Located in California’s Colorado Desert region, the area is below sea level, with high mountain ranges on three sides that contribute to the warm climate. With some of the warmest winters west of the Rocky Mountains, this area is ideal for those travel nurses who have been working up north for too long and would like to thaw out for a bit. The desert climate has its own unique beauty which is easily accessible through Indio’s numerous public parks and the Desert Park Wildlife Refuge. The area is known for its date production (the fruit…not the other kind of date). If you’re seeking some warmer temperatures with access to great concerts and festivals, consider John F. Kennedy Memorial Hospital for your next travel nursing contract.
