Endoscopy Staff Nurse / ODP - Scunthorpe

We are looking for keen and motivated registered nurses/ODPs to join our expanding dynamic team within Endoscopy at Scunthorpe General Hospital.

The Endoscopy Unit is a busy, fast-paced service that is expanding to meet the growing demands on endoscopy services.

The purpose-built unit at Scunthorpe hospital opened in April 2018 and e offers a fantastic environment with modern facilities benefiting both patients and staff.

The service provides a range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures including upper and lower GI procedures, bronchoscopy and ERCP and are looking forward to providing a new TNE service in the near future.

This is a seven-day service and provides an out-of-hours emergency service for gastrointestinal emergencies.

If you are keen to develop your skills and knowledge in this exciting and developing area, we will support you to learn and develop a range of skills and knowledge required to deliver the service. A period of preceptorship/training will be offered and structured to your current knowledge and requirements.

No previous experience in endoscopy is required, as all training is given, and we understand this might not be an area of practice you are familiar with.
