Join our Oncology Clinic team and make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients throughout their cancer care journey. We are seeking a compassionate, clinically skilled Registered Nurse who thrives in a fast-paced ambulatory oncology environment and is committed to delivering exceptional, patient-centered care.

This position supports an oncology surgical provider and requires the selected candidate to rotate between our Roseville and Sacramento clinic locations based on the provider's schedule. The role is a unique blend of direct patient care and care coordination, requiring the ability to balance hands-on clinical responsibilities with significant computer-based work. Daily responsibilities include telephone triage, assessing and responding to patient symptoms, coordinating care across multiple specialties, documenting in the electronic health record, managing referrals and follow-up care, and communicating with patients, caregivers, physicians, and the interdisciplinary care team.

In addition, the Registered Nurse will perform comprehensive patient assessments, provide wound care, complete medication reconciliation, deliver patient and caregiver education, and support patients before and after surgical procedures and throughout their oncology treatment journey.

The ideal candidate is organized, adaptable, and comfortable managing multiple priorities while providing compassionate, high-quality care. Strong critical thinking, clinical judgment, communication, and time management skills are essential, as this role requires independent decision-making, collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, and the ability to respond to changing patient needs. The Registered Nurse utilizes the nursing process to assess, plan, implement, coordinate, educate, and evaluate individualized patient care while incorporating each patient's physical, psychological, social, cultural, spiritual, and lifestyle needs. By adhering to Sutter Health policies, evidence-based practice, and professional nursing standards, the successful candidate will help ensure a safe, seamless, and exceptional patient experience across the continuum of oncology care.
