Hello, Nursing is a second career for me. I LOVE it! I have been working as a nurse for 2 years now of which the last 15 months have been on a busy tele/ step down ICU floor. I work day shift so the learning and experience has been immense and rewarding. I have a BSN and am at the point I want to get into the specialty of oncology. I have had a busy week with 2 interviews at magnet hospitals for their medical oncology floors (dayshifts) and one interview at a free standing radiation oncology facility (no nights, weekends or holidays). I want to get certifications in oncology. I haven't been offered a position yet but have a question on what would be the best route to go. Would I limiting my chances with the radiation oncology nursing job? I always thought I would be chemo certified first. I would obviously become chemo certified with the floor nursing hospital jobs. The radiation oncology job appeals to me for the hours though. If I pursue radiation oncology certification first am I decreasing my chance getting into medical oncology? Advice please! Thank you!
