Ipswich, United Kingdom East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

If you are a motivated and aspiring independent practitioner who is committed to providing high quality, individualised patient care then this could be a great opportunity for you.

We are offering exciting opportunities for an enthusiastic Nurse Endoscopist to join our friendly team.

Our ideal candidate is a Nurse Endoscopist that is competent and has achieved JAG certification to carry out diagnostic and therapeutic UGI and LGI endoscopy (gastroscopy and colonoscopy).

Having competence in both modalities is desirable, however applications would be gratefully received from individuals who are not able to fulfil thefull person specification.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will be required to provide 4-6 endoscopy lists per week, which may include participation in screening initiatives and cover for vacant lists. Weekend working will be part of routine rotation.

You will also be expected to develop, lead and implement nurse-led practice, as required by the service. These can include, for example, capsule endoscopy, oesophageal physiology studies, abdominal paracentesis, breath testing, IBD/dyspepsia/HPB clinics.

The possibilities for service development are vast and these will be agreed with the successful applicant to find something that both suits the service and captivates the practitioner.
