Job Description:
About Us:OncoveryCare is an early-stage virtual healthcare
company committed to fundamentally rethinking and transforming the
landscape of physical and mental healthcare for cancer survivors.
Our team is composed of cancer survivors, clinicians, and experts
in cutting-edge healthcare delivery. We believe that world class
care after a cancer diagnosis shouldn't end when treatment is over,
and we provide an innovative, evidence-based approach to deliver
patient-centered, whole-person support for survivors throughout the
cancer journey.Our vision is a world where living beyond cancer
isn't just "surviving"-it's thriving.A few tidbits about cancer
survivorship:
- There are over 18 million cancer survivors in the United States
today-and that number is expected to grow to 26 million by
2040
- Cancer survivors experience a range of physical and mental
health side effects from treatment
- Survivorship starts at the moment of diagnosis and continues
post-treatment-we are starting in the "transitions of care" phase
post-treatment, when there is often not a specialized team to take
over caring for the survivor moving forwardOur Guiding Principles:
- By survivors, for survivors: We build the survivor voice and
experience into all that we do
- Clinical integrity and rigor: We prioritize evidence-based
approaches and an integrated team to deliver the highest-quality
care

respect their lived experience
- Changing the status quo: We are committed to radically
reinventing how cancer survivorship care is designed, delivered,
and experienced

care is both hard and rewarding-everyone has a role to play, and
