About The Position

As an Oral Chemotherapy Compliance and Education Nurse, you know the needs of your colleagues firsthand. You've been there, done that, and got the insight t-shirt to design, assess, coordinate, implement, and evaluate unit-based clinical nursing education. You implement and support all unit-based educational activities such as onboarding new personnel and conducting in-service and continuing education programs for established nurses. You set the example for upholding nursing care standards and shaping/influencing nursing practices within the organization. Knowledge + skills + teacher = you. While promoting excellence, you serve as a clinical resource for nurses and other members of the care team. Improving nursing practices is serious business in your mind and so you vigorously evaluate and re-evaluate standards of care. Championing your colleagues' trust and enhancing clinical skills is top of mind for you, always, because that little extra is what takes nursing and patient care from ordinary to extraordinary. We love that about you. Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your "little something extra" all add up to you. And we're excited to get to know you and find out what you'll bring to this clinical education nursing role.
