For Nurses
Medical Oncology
Medical Oncology is composed of two practices. The physician practice sees hematology and oncology patients from the community and consults on inpatients. Within this practice, there is a nurse for patient education and symptom/case management. The Infusion Room provides infusion care for a variety of patients. Nurses provide direct care for outpatients receiving chemotherapy, blood transfusions and infusions of other medication. The nursing staff also maintains intravascular access devices, case/symptom management of oncology patients, and provides nursing services to patients referred by nephrology, obstetrics, gynecology, neurology, pulmonary, rheumatology and gastroenterology. Our nursing staff is a small, well-functioning team that improves patient care through evidence-based practice.
