Job description

Overview



We can’t do it without YOU!

Do you want to apply your experience, skills and education in a way that makes a meaningful and lasting difference in the lives of our patients and their families? At Tennessee Cancer Specialists, it is the privilege of our employees to walk with our patients and their families as they move along the journey of fighting cancer. Whether you are working directly with patients in one of our clinics or in a support role, you are an important part of our mission to deliver the highest quality, compassionate care. Our 300+ employees make up the teams at our 17 different East Tennessee locations!

As a Triage Nurse (RN), you will provide appropriate medical advice over the phone to our patients according to treatment plans ordered by our oncology and hematology providers escalating treatment as necessary.


Responsibilities

Here's what might happen on a typical day…

Being an infusion nurse is a unique role that is both challenging and rewarding. Many of our patients are very sick and rely on our nurses to take good care of them. Because of the long hours these patients spend toward treatment of their illness, our infusion and triage nurses become like family.

We understand that a lot of work goes into learning and keeping up with the different types of treatments, and we recognize that your attention to detail and compassionate care are vital to the health of our patients. Maintaining a patient-focused mindset is always the goal, and you do this well!

Experiences that matter…

  • You have experience with oncology and hematology treatments and work flows which allows you to provide over-the-phone medical advice to our patients and their family members. Your experience also allows you to properly recognize when treatment for a patient should be escalated to a provider.
  • In conversation with our patients, you will provide excellent customer service by rolling out the red carpet to meet their needs and make them feel as comfortable as possible during a challenging time in their lives.
  • Your in-depth knowledge of the many types of treatments and regimens and willingness to stay current in these areas allows you to serve as a resource for our patients and other clinical team members.
  • Experience with navigating Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems and familiarity with HIPAA as well as OSHA and other safety guidelines will allow you to quickly adapt to the workflow of this position.
  • Communicating respectfully and in a timely manner will keep all necessary team members on the same page to maintain the quality care of your patients.
  • Your go-getter work ethic will have you ready to jump in and help out with any additional tasks.

Qualifications

For your safety, keep this in mind:

  • This position will require sitting for extended periods of time.
  • Any lifting should be limited to 40 pounds or less.
  • You will need manual dexterity, proper hand-eye coordination, full range of motion to possibly assist with lifting patients, and corrected vision and hearing to normal range.

We feel this position requires these basics:

  • A professional nursing degree is required with a BSN degree being preferred. A Tennessee State Nursing licensure is also required.
  • Additionally, your current BLS certification will be required upon hire. You either live in the Knoxville area or are in the process of relocating. This role is fully onsite and does not offer remote or hybrid work options.
  • Lastly, we feel that you will be most successful with at least one year of prior oncology nursing experience to provide you with the background needed for this position.
