This position is designed to be an on-site role. However, Radiation Oncology nursing acknowledges that remote work (aka WFH = work from home) supports wellness and work-life balance. In support of this belief, a registered nurse coordinator (RNC) may be afforded a hybrid work schedule format as a conditional accommodation contingent upon on-site operational and direct patient care needs being appropriately met as a priority, and in a way that remote working does not impart an operational strain or care delivery gap. Working remotely may be approved, denied, or revised by the charge RN, nurse scheduler, or supervisor/manager as needed, and in alignment with established team expectations, organizational policy, and ONA contract parameters.
