As a staff nurse in radiation oncology, Catherine (Katie) Mannix, RN, MSN, OCN, has provided excellent nursing care working in many specialties, especially in urology and sarcoma malignancies. Now as nurse director she oversees a large adult and pediatric department and advocates continuity of care for cancer patients at the Mass General Cancer Center and its satellite facilities. She has expanded the nursing staff to include nurse practitioners and continues to offer her nursing staff opportunities for growth and development.
