Summary

If you are looking for a new challenge come and join our growing team providing quality care for patients across the whole endoscopy pathway

You will need to be a hardworking and a motivated team player committed to delivering high standards of patient centred care with excellent communication skills, a flexible attitude and you will need to demonstrate a commitment to your own personal development.

The successful applicant will ideally have relevant and recent experience in an healthcare setting.

Whilst previous endoscopy experience may be advantageous it is not essential as we provide training and competency assessment.

This role requires an active UK NMC Registration

Poole Hospital Endoscopy Unit consists of 3 procedure rooms. Royal Bournemouth Hospital has 6 procedure rooms and Wimborne has 1 procedure room.

Across sites we provide diagnostic and therapeutic upper and lower GI procedures, respiratory procedures like bronchoscopy, EBUS and thoracoscopy. We also do complex procedures including: Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS), and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and the Bowel cancer screen programme.

UHD are investing, developing and transforming Trust services in line with the New Hospital Programme. As part of this, some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or permanently. Recruiting Managers will be happy to answer any service-specific questions at interview.

If a role or service relocates as part of a planned move, excess mileage will not be reimbursed. Travel from home to the new work base will be classed as a normal commute. Any other changes will be managed under Trust or national terms and conditions.
