Average Biologist Yearly Salary in the United States. Biologists earn a median salary of $72,220 per year. Salaries typically start from $41,230 and go up to $127,120. These numbers may vary depending on several factors, like level of education, amount of experience, industry, company size and location.
The AOCNP, AOCNS and CBCN certification tests also include chemotherapy in their testing material, though to a lesser extent. In general, their eligibility requirements are the same; however, the advanced oncology certifications also require a master's degree or higher from an accredited nursing institution.
APEx does not define the certification requirements, but is looking to see if the practice has them defined, documented, and are implementing them. The purpose of this evidence indicator is that there is additional experience and/or educational preparation in radiation oncology for all nurses (full or part-time).
