Chapter Mission Statement
ONS chapters connect you to dedicated nurses who care about patient and public outreach, and provide a professional network as you’re advancing your career. Many chapters partner with healthcare organizations to offer continuing nursing education and dinner programs.
The Silicon Valley chapter of the Oncology Nursing Society is committed to provide mechanisms to further the professional development of the individual members within the chapter. A secondary but equally important mission is to provide an atmosphere of collegial, professional and emotional support to the chapter membership throughout the continued transition in health care as it exists in the state of California and as it evolves throughout the nation.
Core Values
Innovation – Excellence – Advocacy
