Job Description:
6 North (Oncology / Cancer Services) Mount Sinai Hospital's
Cancer Program includes our Ambulatory Chemotherapy Infusion Unit
(nine-chairs), the Hematology/Oncology Clinic and a 28 bed
inpatient unit on 6 North. Our Cancer Program is accredited by the
American College of Surgeon's Commission on Cancer with
commendation and has been honored with exemplary clinical practice
from the American Society of Clinical Oncology Quality Practice
Initiative. Our oncology nurses, who administer chemotherapy, are
trained through the Oncology Nursing Society's Chemotherapy and
Biotherapy class. We are proud that many of our nurses are Oncology
Certified Nurses (OCN). We have a Nursing Shared Decision Making
Council, which sets goals and tactic implementation for our areas.
The council has worked on safety, communication and education, to
name just a few. Since new cancer drugs are constantly being
released to the market, we have a very robust
chemotherapy/biotherapy continuing education program. Additionally,
our staff attends sponsored dinners for educational purposes and to
build comradery. Our Cancer Program holds weekly Cancer
Conferences, where new patients are discussed in a
multi-disciplinary milieu. This is the "gold standard" for cancer
care. We have quarterly Cancer Committee meetings where we plan,
implement and study progress toward Commission on Cancer standards
of practice. We participate in phase III clinical research trials,
with one of the highest percentages of patient enrollment
nationwide for a Community Cancer Center. Our Tumor Registry
Department keeps track of our cancer patients and sends electronic
data to the State of Illinois, the Center for Disease Control and
the Commission on Cancer. We have over 450 new cancer patients
diagnosed each year. Since our Cancer Program is multi-disciplinary
and patient-centric in nature, many services are offered throughout
the entire continuum of care, including Nurse Navigation, Financial
Counselor, Social Work, Chaplain, Palliative Care/Hospice,
Supportive Care Clinic, Survivorship Program, Dietician, Radiation
Oncology Community Prevention, Detection and Screening Programs.
Flexibility with scheduling provides you with a better work-life
balance. We are committed to the high standards of the Oncology
Nursing Society, while having an outgoing and sociable staff.
Besides recognizing each other on our Recognition Board, we
celebrate our birthdays each month. If Oncology Nursing is a
passion for you, our Cancer Program is the place to be!
