​Oncology Nursing


One of the most rewarding careers is to be an Oncology Nurse. At the National University Cancer Institute Singapore (NCIS), nurses deliver quality, compassionate and personalised care to our patients and their families across care settings. We are an integral member of the inter-disciplinary teams that are constantly setting new standards for cutting edge and innovative cancer care.
