Who they are
You’re weighing Provident Behavioral Health in Denver, Colorado. The city sits roughly 6% above the national cost of living, with a flat state income tax near 4.4%, and Colorado is a compact-license state—so if you already hold a compact license, you are not waiting on a second one to practice.
More about Provident Behavioral Health
Day-to-day life here splits between denser pockets—downtown high-rises, LoDo, RiNo, Ballpark lofts near Union Station and Coors Field—and farther-out space in places like Littleton, Highlands Ranch, or Roxborough. Average commute across the city is about 28 minutes. People describe steady nurse demand across a broad market (Denver Health, HCA HealthONE, AdventHealth, and others) paired with parks, trails, and a lot of sunshine. What we cannot tell you yet is what this employer pays, how staffing and scheduling work on their units, or whether they run a residency or tuition support. Nearby medians in our data—about $36.32 an hour at Denver Health and $34.26 at AdventHealth—are only context for the questions you’ll want to bring to the interview.
