Registered Nurse - Endoscopy
An exciting opportunity is available for a Registered Nurse to join a busy Endoscopy team. The successful candidate will provide safe, effective and compassionate care to patients undergoing diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures, supporting them throughout their journey from admission and preparation through to recovery and discharge.
You will work collaboratively with endoscopists, anaesthetic practitioners, healthcare assistants and the wider multidisciplinary team to ensure high standards of patient care. Responsibilities will include completing comprehensive assessments, preparing patients for procedures, assisting during endoscopy, monitoring observations, administering medicines in line with policy, and recognising and responding promptly to any change in a patient’s condition.
You will also be responsible for supporting recovery following sedation or anaesthesia, providing clear discharge advice, maintaining accurate clinical documentation and ensuring effective communication with patients, relatives and colleagues. A strong commitment to infection prevention and control is essential, including adherence to decontamination procedures, safe handling of equipment and compliance with relevant clinical standards. You may also be required to undertake venepuncture, cannulation and other relevant clinical skills, subject to training and competency.
Applicants must hold current registration as an Adult Nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Council and have relevant post-registration experience. Previous experience within an endoscopy, theatre, critical care or acute clinical environment is desirable, although applications from nurses with transferable skills and a willingness to develop are welcomed. Knowledge of conscious sedation, patient safety and endoscopy pathways would be advantageous.
You will be organised, adaptable and able to remain calm in a fast-paced environment. Excellent communication skills, sound clinical judgement and a compassionate approach are essential. You must be able to work effectively as part of a team while also demonstrating initiative and accountability. The role may include shifts across weekdays, evenings, weekends or other service requirements.
In return, you will receive opportunities for professional development, structured support and access to relevant training. If you are committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred care and are keen to develop your expertise in endoscopy, we would welcome your application.
