Profiles in CyberKnife Treatment: Role of the CyberKnife Nurse

From the initial consultation with our treatment team to follow-up appointments with your CyberKnife^® physician, the CyberKnife nurse works to address the needs and concerns of the patient.

The CyberKnife nurse provides clinical support and care coordination for patients. This includes assisting the CyberKnife radiation oncologist during patient consultation, educating patients and families in preparation for treatment, managing symptoms and coordinating appointments and treatment schedules.

Vicki Hartnett, RN OCN, serves as our center’s CyberKnife nurse navigator. We are so grateful for the support and guidance she provides to our patients and their loved ones!
