Mid Level
Step into a transformative role as a Registered Nurse in Oncology, based in Penn Yan, New York, with a start date of January 19, 2026. This is more than a job—it's an invitation to influence every patient encounter, guide families through difficult moments, and advance cancer care with skill and compassion. You’ll work within multidisciplinary teams to deliver evidence-based treatments, perform thorough assessments, manage symptoms, and advocate for care plans that align with each person’s goals. The role spans solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, with exposure to chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and supportive care strategies that enhance quality of life. The Penn Yan setting places you in the scenic Finger Lakes region, where rolling vineyards, peaceful lakes, and historic storefronts create a grounded, uplifting backdrop for clinical excellence. After shifts, you can explore local wineries, waterfront trails, museums, and vibrant farm-to-table dining. The assignment is designed for several weeks, with opportunities to extend, rotate, or tailor the engagement to your preferences and professional interests. You’ll join a program that values autonomy balanced by robust operational support and a shared commitment to patient-centered care.

Location benefits go beyond a beautiful workspace. Penn Yan offers the warmth of a close-knit community, easy access to outdoor recreation, cultural events, and a pace that supports thoughtful patient care. In addition to the local environment, the program provides options to work at partner facilities across New York and other states, delivering diverse clinical settings, varied tumor types, and exposure to different practice patterns. This nationwide travel component expands your professional network while preserving the stability of a core role. You’ll gain experience across hospital floors, infusion suites, and ambulatory oncology clinics, strengthening your adaptability and clinical leadership while enjoying the distinctive experiences that come with each site—from lake cruises to symposiums. The combination of home-region beauty and nationwide placement opportunities creates a career ladder that respects your life balance while broadening your scope of practice.

Role specifics and benefits begin with clinical excellence. You will administer chemotherapy and targeted therapies under physician orders, monitor patient status, recognize and respond to adverse effects, and coordinate with physicians, pharmacists, social workers, and palliative care teams to optimize outcomes. You’ll conduct comprehensive assessments, tailor symptom management plans, educate patients and families about treatment expectations, and document care with precision. The position supports ongoing professional growth in oncology nursing through certifications, evidence-based updates, and access to mentorship that helps you move toward advanced practice roles or leadership tracks. The compensation package features competitive weekly pay in the range of $1,894 to $2,058, plus housing assistance and potential contract extensions. While guaranteed hours are not provided (0.0), schedules are arranged to maximize continuity of care and align with patient needs and your availability. You’ll also receive extensive support, including 24/7 assistance while traveling with the company, a dedicated travel concierge, and rapid access to credentialing and compliance resources to keep you confidently in front of your patients.
