State College, PA
Contracted
Mount Nittany Health
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative nursing journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Hematology Oncology in State College, Pennsylvania, where your clinical expertise can illuminate the path for patients navigating cancer treatment. In this role, you’ll blend compassionate bedside care with cutting-edge oncology protocols, delivering chemotherapy administration, infusion therapies, comprehensive symptom management, precise medication reconciliation, and meticulous care coordination that supports families through daunting diagnoses. From frontline patient assessments to education that empowers self-management and adherence, your leadership will help patients progress through treatment with dignity, resilience, and hope. This assignment begins January 6, 2026, and runs with guaranteed 40 hours per week for the duration of the contract, offering competitive weekly pay of $2,237 to $2,357. Beyond the hospital walls, Pennsylvania itself reveals its own beauty—rolling hills, historic towns, and vibrant outdoor spaces. State College invites you to enjoy the energy of a thriving university town, while outdoor lovers explore nearby Rothrock and Coffee Pot trails, wind along the scenic valleys, and soak in the seasonal colors that make central Pennsylvania unforgettable. It’s a place where meaningful clinical work and memorable personal experiences intertwine, offering a well-rounded lifestyle that nourishes both professional and personal well-being.
State College provides a compelling backdrop for hematology-oncology practice, with a robust medical community, access to top-tier treatment facilities, and a collaborative culture that values evidence-based care. You’ll work alongside seasoned hematology-oncology teams, cultivating expertise in chemotherapy regimens, immunotherapies, hematologic supportive care, and survivorship planning. The opportunity to collaborate across disciplines—nursing, pharmacy, social work, palliative care, and radiation oncology—helps you develop a holistic skill set and a nuanced understanding of complex cancer journeys. For travelers, the role extends beyond one location: the program opens doors to working in various locations across the United States, exposing you to diverse patient populations, hospital environments, and care models, all while maintaining a consistent safety net of 24/7 company support and streamlined travel resources. Professionally, you’ll gain exposure to tumor boards, clinical trials, and innovative care pathways that sharpen your expertise and accelerate career growth, while enjoying Pennsylvania’s rich cultural offerings on days off, from state museums to vibrant farmers’ markets and seasonal festivals.
Role specifics and benefits: You’ll provide direct, high-quality patient care for hematology-oncology patients, including initial and ongoing assessments, infusion therapy administration, venous access care, management of treatment-related side effects, pain control, symptom reporting, and timely escalation of clinical concerns. You’ll participate in multidisciplinary rounds, participate in treatment planning, and contribute to patient and family education that supports informed consent, adherence, and quality of life. There is a clear path for professional growth within this specialty, with opportunities to pursue advanced certifications, lead education initiatives for patients and staff, and contribute to quality-improvement projects that optimize safety and outcomes. Our compensation package is designed to be competitive and comprehensive, including a signing bonus to acknowledge your expertise, housing assistance to ease transitions, and contract extensions that provide flexibility and continuity for both you and your patients. You’ll benefit from robust, 24/7 support as you travel with the company, including travel coordination, credentialing help, orientation resources, and a dedicated care team ready to assist at any hour. You’ll also have access to ongoing clinical education, mentorship from experienced oncology professionals, and a culture that celebrates curiosity, patient-centered practice, and teamwork.
Company values: Our organization is anchored in empowering staff to advance their careers while maintaining a supportive, collaborative environment. We invest in your professional development through structured learning pathways, leadership opportunities, and recognition of clinical excellence. We believe that a thriving nurse thrives communities: when you grow, patients, families, and the broader health system benefit. Expect transparent communication, respectful teamwork, and a commitment to work-life balance that respects your personal goals as you continue to serve diverse patient populations with compassion and rigor.
Call to Action: If you’re ready to apply, seize this exciting chance to join a company that values your clinical judgment, your growth, and your dedication to compassionate cancer care. Bring your hematology-oncology expertise to a collaborative team in State College, where top-tier patient outcomes meet a supportive, dynamic work environment and opportunities to explore new locations across the U.S. Begin your next chapter with us and help shape the future of oncology nursing.
