RN Oncology Full-time
UVA Health

Registered Nurse Care Coordinator (RNCC) - Radiation Oncology

UVA Health Charlottesville, VA, US
$85,820.80 - $113,401.60 / year

Cancer care is deeply personal, and this RN Care Coordinator role is built for a nurse who wants to make treatment feel more understandable, coordinated, and human for patients navigating radiation oncology.

As a Registered Nurse Care Coordinator in Radiation Oncology at UVA Health, you will help patients prepare for treatment, manage side effects, connect with supportive resources, and feel known throughout their course of care. This is a meaningful opportunity for an oncology-minded RN who values continuity, patient education, team connection, and the ability to blend direct patient care with thoughtful coordination work.

The Role

In this role, you will serve as a consistent clinical touchpoint for cancer patients receiving radiation treatments. You will help patients understand what to expect before treatment begins, follow them throughout their therapy, coordinate supportive care needs, and partner closely with the radiation oncology team to help patients move through treatment with confidence and support.

This is a Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m. role with no weekends and no holidays. The position offers a hybrid feel, combining direct patient interaction with desk-based coordination, phone triage, documentation, and care planning. There is also potential for one remote day per week once the nurse is established and performing successfully.

A typical day may include:

  • Meeting with assigned patients, often weekly, to assess needs, reinforce education, and support treatment readiness.
  • Preparing patients before their first radiation treatment by reviewing expectations, side effects, and available resources.
  • Placing supportive care referrals when additional focused support is needed.
  • Triaging patient phone calls and helping resolve clinical questions in a timely, compassionate way.
  • Coordinating care across providers, services, and patient needs.
  • Documenting and communicating effectively in the Epic EHR.
  • Supporting patients who may be receiving treatment over an extended course, sometimes up to 35 treatment days, allowing nurses to build meaningful therapeutic relationships.

The pace is dynamic because every patient and every day can look different. Nurses who thrive here are flexible, organized, clinically curious, patient-centered, and comfortable balancing competing priorities without becoming rigid. Radiation oncology experience is preferred, but not required. Oncology experience, comfort with wound care, enteral feeding, IV therapy, and Epic are all helpful in preparing for success.

Why UVA Health

UVA Health offers the rare combination of academic medicine, nationally recognized cancer care, nursing excellence, and close team culture. For an RN Care Coordinator in Radiation Oncology, that means your work is connected to a broader mission while still allowing you to make a highly personal impact with individual patients and families.

This role sits within an environment where oncology nurses are part of a collaborative cancer care team focused on the full spectrum of cancer services, including advanced detection, treatment, patient care, translational research, immunotherapies, and more. UVA Health is home to the first NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Virginia, and the Medical Center is recognized as a Magnet®-designated hospital, reflecting a strong professional nursing culture.

What makes this opportunity especially compelling:

  • Close-knit radiation oncology team where nurses know one another and support one another.
  • A leader who previously held the RNCC role and understands the work firsthand.
  • A culture that values humor, comfort, and compassion for both patients and teammates.
  • The chance to know patients over the course of treatment, not just in a single encounter.
  • A role that combines clinical judgment, patient education, care coordination, phone triage, and direct relationship-building.
  • A structured but flexible onboarding experience designed around your readiness.
  • A weekday schedule with no weekends, no holidays, and potential hybrid flexibility.
  • The opportunity to build specialized expertise in radiation side effects, toxicity management, and oncology care coordination.

Relocation assistance may be available for qualified candidates.

You will not be expected to figure it out alone. Onboarding is individualized, with support from experienced nurses and leaders until you are comfortable practicing independently. Within the first year, the goal is for you to become confident in recognizing radiation-related side effects, coordinating appropriate interventions, and managing common treatment toxicities with increasing efficiency and proficiency.
