Central Georgia Cancer Care, a partner practice of American Oncology Network (AON) and the only oncology practice in the state with both QOPI® and ASCO accolades, is excited to announce Risa Guidry, RN, as the practice’s new Clinical Nurse Manager in Warner Robins.

In this role, Guidry will provide clinical leadership and help ensure patients receive compassionate, high-quality, patient-centered care. She brings more than a decade of nursing experience, including extensive experience in oncology, care management and clinical leadership.

Guidry joins CGCC from Piedmont Cancer Institute, where she most recently served as Clinical Team Lead. There, she helped lead clinical staff in triage and infusion, coordinated patient care, trained and mentored team members, and supported standards of quality oncology care.

Her oncology experience began as a Registered Nurse on a Medical Surgical Oncology Unit. She later served as a Care Manager with Cancer Treatment Centers of America, providing nursing and case management services to help coordinate patients’ care throughout the continuum.

“I have always valued the opportunity to make a difference for patients and their families during some of the most challenging moments of their lives,” said Guidry. “I am excited to bring my oncology experience and passion for patient-centered care to Central Georgia Cancer Care and to work alongside a team that is committed to providing exceptional care to our community.”

Guidry earned an Associate of Science in Nursing from Penn State Worthington Scranton, a Master of Science in Education and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Mansfield University. She is a Registered Nurse licensed in Georgia and Pennsylvania.

CGCC is excited to welcome Guidry to the team and looks forward to the experience and leadership she will bring to the Warner Robins care team. For more information, visit www.centralgacancercare.com.
