Embark on a transformative journey as a Travel Registered Nurse specializing in Oncology, anchored in the picturesque boroughs and villages of New York with a focus on Penn Yan and the surrounding Finger Lakes region. This is your opportunity to impact patients facing cancer with compassion, clinical excellence, and a steady hand, while exploring the rich landscapes and vibrant communities that define upstate New York. Picture mornings by serene lakefronts, afternoons in tranquil towns lined with orchards and vineyards, and evenings spent savoring the region’s renowned cuisine and cultural offerings. In this role you’ll deliver state-of-the-art oncology care, mentor peers, and partner with an interdisciplinary team to advance outcomes, all while growing your professional footprint in a rewarding travel assignment.
Working in Penn Yan offers a distinctive blend of small-town warmth and access to a broader network of renowned medical centers across New York and beyond. The Finger Lakes area is famed for its scenic trails, water activities, and a thriving arts scene, providing a balanced backdrop to demanding clinical work. Beyond Penn Yan, the program opens doors to assignments in diverse locations across the United States, giving you the chance to broaden your clinical repertoire, meet new colleagues, and experience a mosaic of patient populations and care settings. You’ll enjoy a supportive environment that respects your autonomy as a traveling professional while ensuring you’re never far from a trusted backup when you need it.
Role specifics and benefits: As an Oncology RN on this travel assignment, you’ll be at the forefront of cancer care, delivering chemotherapy infusions, administering monoclonal therapies, managing symptom control, and conducting thorough patient assessments. You’ll educate patients and families about treatment plans, potential side effects, and self-care strategies, while coordinating with physicians, pharmacists, social workers, and palliative care teams to keep the plan cohesive. You’ll engage in evidence-based practices, monitor for adverse events, and document clinical findings with precision to support continuity of care across shifts and sites. The role also offers significant opportunities for professional growth within oncology—from expanding proficiency in infusion therapy and toxicity management to developing leadership skills by precepting future travel nurses and contributing to quality improvement initiatives. The position promotes ongoing learning through affiliation with oncology mentors, access to continuing education resources, and the chance to specialize further as you build a robust, portable skill set.
Our benefits package is designed to recognize the demands of travel nursing while providing tangible support that compounds your earning potential.

A housing assistance program helps secure comfortable, convenient lodging near your assignment, so you can decompress after shifts and maintain a healthy work–life balance. The opportunity to extend placements at successful sites means you can deepen your oncology expertise and strengthen professional relationships without starting from scratch on every move. In addition, you’ll benefit from 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have reliable access to clinical and logistical assistance whenever you need it, from shift changes to travel arrangements. There is no guaranteed minimum number of hours on this assignment (Guaranteed Hours: 0.0), reflecting the flexible nature of travel work and the emphasis on matching patient need with your availability.
Company values and culture. The organization is grounded in empowering its staff to own their career journeys, championing continuous skill development and recognizing the unique contributions of travel nurses.
