As a growing company, we're committed to investing in our people by offering high-quality benefits while building an organization where employees can make a meaningful impact from day one.
At Traversal Health, we believe that a cancer diagnosis should receive the standard of care, regardless of where a patient resides. We are delivering high-quality medical oncology care to patients within correctional facility settings. Alongside dedicated correctional health staff, we show up every day to provide safe, dignified, and evidence-based cancer care to people who need it most.
We are a small, dynamic team that moves with purpose: collaborative, mission-driven, and deeply compassionate. If you're a nurse who wants your work to matter beyond the treatment chair, this role offers meaningful room for professional growth and real leadership opportunities as our organization continues to expand.
This is a part-time (2 days per week position with eligibility for benefits, built for a skilled nurse who wants flexibility without sacrificing impact. As our Oncology Infusion RN, you will provide safe, quality care to patients at every stage of their disease process, from diagnosis to end of life. You will work within a correctional facility clinic, meeting patients where they are and helping them navigate their diagnosis with as much autonomy and dignity as possible, using the full range of disease, symptom, and psychosocial management techniques in your clinical toolkit.
