Documentation will be precise and timely, with adherence to institutional protocols and regulatory requirements. You’ll contribute to care plans during rounds and tumor board discussions, advocate for patient needs, and support continuity of care across inpatient and outpatient settings. This role also presents a path for professional growth within oncology, enabling you to deepen expertise in areas such as hematologic malignancies, immunotherapy toxicities, bone marrow transplant support, and survivorship care. You’ll have opportunities to refine procedural skills, participate in quality improvement initiatives, and take on mentorship responsibilities for newer staff and nursing students.

In addition to financial rewards, you’ll have access to comprehensive housing assistance or stipends designed to secure safe, comfortable housing near your assignment. A sign-on or completion bonus is available to recognize your commitment and performance, with extension opportunities that allow you to continue making an impact beyond the initial weeks if you choose. You’ll also receive robust support from a dedicated clinical liaison and travel team available 24/7 to address any clinical, housing, or logistics needs, ensuring you can focus on delivering exceptional patient care. While your initial plan is a multi-week engagement starting 01/20/2026, the structure is designed to accommodate flexible extensions based on facility needs and your professional goals, providing continuity and growth without compromising work-life balance.
The company’s values place staff empowerment at the forefront. You’ll join an organization that prioritizes career advancement, ongoing education, and a supportive, inclusive work environment.
