Ocala sits in north-central Florida, surrounded by rolling hills and more horse farms than anywhere else in the state. Known as the Horse Capital of the World, it offers a slower pace, mild winters, and easy access to both Gainesville and Orlando. A solid pick for RNs seeking space, scenery, and a laid-back lifestyle.

About the employer
On your path
Home Health is a specialty you move into. Agencies want acute time first, then train the home-specific work.
Worth asking
The posting doesn’t answer these. Good ones to ask a recruiter or in the interview.
- Can you walk me through base pay range and differentials?
- What should I expect for shifts, weekly hours, weekend, holiday, call, and rotation?
- What orientation, preceptor time, and ongoing unit support are included?
- How are patient load, floating, and staffing support handled day to day?
