Infusion Nurse Jobs in Rio Rancho, NM (NOW HIRING)

Infusion Nurse (RN)

Optimum Human + Southwest Women’s Oncology | Albuquerque, New Mexico

Why This Role Matters

Every infusion represents a person placing their trust in us.

Some are fighting cancer. Some are pursuing recovery. Some are working to reclaim their health, vitality, and quality of life.

The Infusion Nurse is often the clinical professional who spends the most time with these patients during their treatment journey. That responsibility matters.

At Optimum and Southwest Women’s Oncology, we believe clinical excellence and human compassion are not competing priorities - they are inseparable. We hire for attitude and aptitude above all else. Credentials matter, but who you are and how you grow matter more.

Who We Are

Southwest Women’s Oncology (SWWO) is New Mexico’s leading gynecologic oncology practice, delivering advanced cancer care with skill, courage, and compassion.

Optimum Human and Optimum Infusion extend that mission into performance medicine, infusion services, longevity, recovery, hormone optimization, medical weight loss, peptide therapies, hyperbaric medicine, aesthetics, and human performance.

Together, we operate as a single integrated platform committed to one mission:

We exist to deliver new possibilities in medical care, human performance, and health by uniting passion, knowledge, and skill.
