homes and administer IV infusion medications autonomously,
providing response management and follow-up care.
* Be the single point of contact for regular updates on patient
status. Armed with a tablet, you are the single point of contact to
ensure all clinicians are in the know about your patient. You'll be
expected to document all interactions and communication with
patients including assessments, treatments, responses, disease
progression, etc.
* Challenge yourself to be a better nurse every day. Use your
commitment to your craft, confidence in your abilities, positive
attitude, and adaptability to handle even the most difficult
situations with the support of your leader and team.
