Abstract

Professional recognition and career development in oncology nursing are strongly linked to the
institutional environment in which nurses perform their practice. Integration into centers of
excellence, accredited by national and international programs such as the Organização Nacional
de Acreditação (ONA) and Great Place to Work (GPTW), represents a competitive advantage for
strengthening the profession and consolidating solid and respected careers. This article analyzes
how working in accredited institutions impacts the recognition of oncology nurses, exploring
dimensions such as employability, competitiveness in the labor market, continuous professional
development opportunities, and social recognition. It also discusses how institutional prestige
enhances the image of nursing, contributing to building a professional trajectory of excellence,
grounded in quality, ethics, and humanized care.
