Job Summary

The Regional Cancer Services NP provides care in a multi-specialty. UCSF Cancer Center San Mateo.

As an offsite/off-license facility, the responsibilities placed upon APPs escalate in complexity due to the remote nature of clinical staffing and patient care. The Nurse Practitioner's responsibilities include performing bone marrow biopsies, patient triage, critical value reception, and covering orders and time-specific requests.

Under the supervision of the UCSF Department of Ambulatory Hematology & Oncology setting and guided by the policies and procedures, rules and regulations, and bylaws of the UCSF Medical Center, some Nursing Policies and Medical Staff Policies, and any unique to inpatient or ambulatory patient services (for those APPs providing services both in the inpatient and mobile environments) this Nurse Practitioner (NP) position is assigned to the San Mateo Cancer Outpatient Practice and Infusion Center. This APP position may perform delegated functions appropriate to their "scope of practice." In general, the "scope of practice" includes the management of chronic stable medical conditions, specialty protocols (e.g., chemotherapy, managing HAI pumps, and responding to low-frequency and high-risk events), routine care, acute or critical care, and medical and surgical procedures. This position will provide outpatient care in approved age groups at UCSF Health settings. The APP is responsible for the quality of standards of care for a specified patient population and evidence of self-direction and accountability in developing this role within all UCSF medical center locations. UCSF Health requires all Advanced Practice Providers (APP) to be credentialed through its Medical Staff Services Office (MSSO) to practice and function in their clinical role. This applies to adult and pediatric APPs in the inpatient and outpatient clinical settings at all UCSF Health sites (San Mateo & Redwood City, Satellite Clinics, et al.). Credentialing and approval of the Standardized Procedures takes 30-60 days and must be completed before the first working day.


The final salary and offer components are subject to additional approvals based on UC policy.
