What does an open seat cost you every week?
An open role costs you more than the recruiting fee. Someone covers the work, waits for care, or stops a service. We ask what is falling behind and who is carrying it. Use your own figures to compare the cost of waiting with the cost of hiring.
The seat is costing you every week.
Overtime, diverted patients, a stretched team and a schedule held together by favors.
The posting brought the wrong people.
Applicants arrive, but the person who has done this exact work is employed and not looking.
You are the one chasing.
Screening calls, no-shows and follow-ups land on the desk of someone with a facility to run.
What does this hire really come down to?
An absent blood return, incomplete order, or poorly recorded reaction can disrupt an entire treatment schedule. We recruit permanent outpatient infusion and chemo infusion RNs who review charts, access ports or PICCs, administer ordered agents, monitor patients, and report concerns through your clinic’s process.
The right hire depends on how your treatment day operates. An oncology practice RN may bring stronger continuity with patients returning for recurring cycles.
Home and ambulatory infusion experience can fit when independent access-device work matters. We ask what occurred in a fixed clinic, which therapies the nurse handled recently, who received escalations, and how the former schedule compares with yours.
We arrange locum tenens, travel and contract coverage on request. Credentialing, licensing and malpractice coverage are confirmed per engagement before anyone starts.
What do we check before you see anyone?
RN license and work history: We confirm an active RN license for the state where you will employ the nurse. We ask about license actions, employment gaps, relocation plans, and recent reasons for changing roles. Your team completes credentialing and final clinical review.
- CRNI or OCN status: CRNI or OCN can be a useful preferred credential for an infusion or oncology opening. We verify the credential claimed and its current status. We do not present either credential as a universal legal condition.
- Chemotherapy and immunotherapy training: We ask whether the nurse has documented chemotherapy and immunotherapy administration training and when it was completed. We discuss recent agent categories, order review, monitoring, and what the nurse reported when a planned visit changed.
- Port, PICC, and midline access: We ask for recent examples of access assessment before an infusion. Candidates explain what they observed with resistance, pain, swelling, drainage, dressing concerns, or absent blood return, plus what they escalated under policy.
- Reaction recognition and escalation: We use a hypothetical reaction to test recent work. If a patient reports flushing, throat tightness, back pain, or shortness of breath, we ask what the nurse would observe, document, communicate, and address through the site’s standing process.
- Documentation and schedule decisions: We ask how the nurse records access findings, start and stop times, patient reports, medication changes, and clinician communication. We also discuss late laboratory results, delayed arrivals, incomplete orders, and treatments that cannot proceed as planned.
Where do we find them, and why would they move?
Hospital infusion centers and oncology practices are primary source pools. Nurses may consider a move for a different schedule, shorter commute, more continuity with returning patients, a narrower therapy mix, or a different role during the treatment day. We confirm the reason rather than assume it.
Home and ambulatory infusion providers are another source pool. These nurses may bring independent access-device work and patient teaching experience. We clarify how much recent work occurred in a clinic, because travel-based visits and fixed-center schedules involve different handoffs and documentation routines.
Which mistakes stall the search?
A common mistake is treating general medical-surgical work as proof of recent port, PICC, or midline assessment before an infusion. Another is focusing on chemotherapy exposure without asking about immunotherapy training, observation routines, and reaction reporting. A hospital infusion center RN may bring recent work with varied regimens, laboratory results, premedications, order changes, and observation periods.
Skipping the documentation discussion, then learning the candidate cannot explain a delayed treatment, clinician notification, or incomplete order.
How would we run the search for this opening?
Tell us which therapies, access devices, appointment lengths, observation periods, and order-review steps shape the opening. We review licensure, work history, stated credentials, administration training, and recent infusion duties. Use scenarios drawn from your clinic. Ask how the nurse would respond to an absent blood return, missing laboratory result, or symptoms after therapy begins.
Define the treatment day
We also ask who supports the RN when a result is late or a patient’s condition changes.
Screen for recent work
Our screening notes cover access work, agent exposure, documentation habits, schedule fit, and reasons the nurse may be open to a move.
Interview against your process
Your clinical leaders complete the final competency assessment and hiring decision.

How do you screen chemotherapy and immunotherapy experience?
We ask about documented administration training, recent agent categories, order review, monitoring, and reaction reporting. We also ask how the nurse handled an order discrepancy or a finding that changed the planned visit. Your team validates clinical competence before hire.
Do we need an RN with CRNI or OCN?
That depends on your internal standards and therapy mix. CRNI or OCN can indicate focused infusion or oncology knowledge, but neither is a universal legal mandate. We can search for credentialed nurses or review comparable recent work.
Should we recruit from a hospital infusion center or oncology practice?
Hospital infusion experience may suit a center with varied regimens, changing orders, and frequent treatment adjustments. Oncology practice experience may suit a team that values continuity across recurring visits. Compare actual duties, not employer type alone.
Can you help if we need coverage rather than a permanent hire?
We arrange locum tenens, travel and contract coverage on request. Credentialing, licensing and malpractice coverage are confirmed per engagement before anyone starts.
How are permanent placement fees handled?
No upfront fee. You pay only if you hire. We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement.
What should you send us about this role?
Send us the role, where the person will work and what needs to change with this hire. We will ask about the work, not just the title. Share any license or schedule limits that could rule someone out before we begin the search.
Send us the therapy mix, access work, schedule, and escalation path for your opening. We will screen for an infusion RN who can perform that work in your setting.

How long will it take to see a short list?
That depends on the job, schedule, available people, and what your employer can offer. We discuss those constraints before outreach and update you as candidates respond. We do not promise a fixed shortlist date. We check the job brief before arranging interviews. Tell us which parts of the role you can change.
What if a candidate receives a counteroffer?
We ask why the person wants to move and discuss competing decisions before an offer. A counteroffer can still change their choice. Keep the duties and offer clear rather than assuming more money settles every concern. Tell us early if parts of your offer cannot change, so the candidate hears it from us first.
What are the replacement terms?
We offer a candidate replacement guarantee on standard search agreements. The applicable period and exact terms are set out in the signed client recruiting agreement. Ask us to walk through those terms before you sign, so you know how a replacement would work for your opening and who would start it.
What do we not do in a standard permanent search?
We do not bill standard contingency search by the hour or simply repost your job. Temporary coverage is a separate arrangement. Any retainer or different engagement must be agreed, not assumed. Tell us early if you need coverage while the permanent search runs.
