The city

Living in Beckley, WV

Beckley sits in the wooded hills of southern West Virginia, a small city where Appalachian charm meets outdoor adventure. Nurses who enjoy a slower pace and proximity to nature will find it appealing, with the New River Gorge National Park just minutes away for hiking, rafting, and scenic drives on days off.

More about Raleigh General Hospital

It carries Level III trauma designation, Primary Stroke Center status since 2018, and cardiac credentials that include Chest Pain with PCI and a cath lab accredited with PCI. Wound care runs an inpatient program with hyperbaric medicine. If you are new to practice, the hospital runs a 12-month new-graduate RN residency with automatic enrollment and ongoing preceptor support, and the CCSD step-down unit is used to build intermediate cardiac, respiratory, and high-acuity skills. Educational and tuition assistance show up in postings for qualified nurses, along with medical, dental, vision, 401K, PTO/EIB, and an EAP. Some postings have also mentioned a $10,000 sign-on bonus and relocation help. The picture is not polished. A long-tenured employee points out that the building is older and still needs updates, and RN reviews on Glassdoor and Indeed sit near the high 2s to low 3s, with management and staffing among the softer marks. You get real acuity and a structured on-ramp; you also get a plant and review trail that ask you to look closely before you commit.

States that employees are its most valuable assets and lists equal-opportunity employment; partners with WVJC on nursing training with on-site lab and clinical experience.
