AI Summary

Heart of The Rockies Regional Medical Center is a government-operated Critical Access hospital located in the small town of Salida, Colorado, offering a close-knit community environment that may appeal to international nurses seeking a supportive and personable workplace.

Regional price parities (RPPs) are regional price levels expressed as a percentage of the overall national price level for a given year. The price levels are determined by the average prices paid by consumers for the mix of goods and services consumed in each region. Taking the ratio of RPPs shows the difference in price levels across regions.
