Find the Meaning Again

Some Radiation Therapist positions ask you to choose between clinical growth, meaningful patient relationships, and work-life balance.

This isn't one of them.

At PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center in Vancouver, Washington, you'll work with advanced technology, build expertise in both Treatment Delivery and CT Simulation, and become an important part of each patient's cancer journey-all while maintaining a predictable Monday-Friday, 8:00 AM-4:30 PM schedule.

If you've been looking for a place where your skills are valued, your growth is supported, and your evenings still belong to you, keep reading.

Why Radiation Therapists Are Taking a Closer Look at PeaceHealth

Cancer care is personal.

Patients return again and again throughout treatment. They remember the therapist who explains, reassures, encourages, and helps them through difficult days.

That's what makes this opportunity different.

With an average volume of 15-20 patients per day, you'll have the ability to focus on both precision and compassion. You'll have the time to build meaningful relationships while working alongside a collaborative Radiation Oncology team committed to exceptional care.

More importantly, you'll continue growing professionally.

Rather than being limited to a single function, you'll participate in:

  • Radiation Treatment Delivery
  • CT Simulation
  • Brachytherapy support
  • Patient positioning and immobilization
  • Treatment planning collaboration
  • Student mentoring opportunities as your career progresses

This is the kind of experience that builds a stronger, more versatile Radiation Therapist.

Work With Technology That Supports Great Care

You'll practice on a Varian TrueBeam platform, delivering advanced radiation therapy treatments with accuracy and confidence.

For therapists who enjoy combining technical expertise with patient interaction, the mix of Treatment and CT Simulation creates variety throughout the week and opportunities to continually expand your skill set.

Whether you're an experienced therapist or just beginning your career, you'll find an environment that encourages growth rather than limiting it.

New graduates are encouraged to apply.
