Registered Nurse - Oncology Infusion - Part Time - Days
About The Position
Oncology nursing is about far more than an infusion. You know the difference between a routine assessment and a subtle change that needs attention. You know how much a calm voice can matter on treatment day, how to explain a complex regimen without overwhelming a patient, and how meaningful it is when a patient sees a familiar nurse and knows they’re in good hands. We’re looking for an experienced Oncology Infusion Nurse who brings that clinical judgment, confidence, and compassion to every chair in our infusion center. Here, your expertise is valued. Your voice matters. And the relationships you build with patients are an essential part of the care we provide. We want experienced oncology nurses to bring their knowledge, perspective, and clinical instincts to the team. You won’t simply fill a role—you’ll help shape the care our patients receive. The Staff Nurse will deliver safe and compassionate nursing care for all patient populations by planning, implementing, and evaluating the patient plan of care. The Staff Nurse will collaborates with nurses, physicians, and other members of the clinical team to ensure optimal patient outcomes and continuity of care.
