The Royal Berkshire Hospital's Endoscopy Unit is committed to delivering a high quality patient-focused service.

We are a well-equipped and modern department which specialises in a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for patients attending as day cases, in-patients and emergencies.

We are a JAG accredited unit and undertake bowel cancer screening as part of the National Screening Programme.

An opportunity has arisen for a dynamic individual willing to learn some highly skilled endoscopy techniques and actively assist in providing quality care for patients undergoing endoscopy procedures.

The post holder will provide excellent individualised nursing care to patients attending the endoscopy unit from pre-assessment, support in the procedure rooms through to discharge.

In return, we offer you a flexible and motivating work environment and you will have full support of the Endoscopy Unit in providing both a clinical and competency based training programme (Jets workforce). In addition, the endoscopy unit consist of a multidisplinary team and we encourage all our staff to develop their clinical, managerial and leadership skills in a positive learning environment.

We are a very busy, expanding unit and are seeking reliable and flexible staff. The unit is open Monday to Saturday 08:00 to 18:30.
