As an outpatient oncology RN, you will work closely with your providers (MD/APP) and team (RN navigator, scheduler, MA, intake coordinators, genetic counselors, and other team RNs) to coordinate your patient's oncology care and treatment. You will triage Cerner message pool for high priority patient care messages, enter orders (rx refills/referrals/imaging/labs etc), ensure all components of necessary medical records are available for patient visit prior to visit, respond to interdisciplinary team questions regarding patient treatment needs, authorization clarification, symptom management, work collaboratively with rooming teams, supportive care, and navigation to ensure best visit for patient. You may support a support a surgical oncologist and assist with clinic-appropriate procedures. You will have clinic two or three days/week (patients coming in to see the oncologist) and one or two days to prep for and close clinic (no patients coming to clinic these days. We are expanding access to care to our oncology patients: depending upon the team you join, in addition to working at North Campus, you may have a clinic day/week at one of our other clinical sites both in operation currently and/or new sites as we grow.
