Endoscopy RN On Call Required LB

Your job is more than a job.

No one makes it happen like you. As an endoscopy nurseyou’re all over patient care before, during, and after the procedure like “gravy on rice.” You educate your patients about the procedure becauseyou’ve developed a specialized knowledge about gastrointestinal disorders and anexpertise in a variety of diagnostic procedures used to diagnose digestive health issues. With a Monday through Friday schedule, you understand “on call” is a necessary part of the job andthat’s okay with you.It’s a fast-paced environment where you manage multiple patients during your shift and, should complications arise, you handle them with confidence and compassion like the pro that you are.   

When your patients leave with the answers to their health questions, you love the reward that comes with teamwork and successful outcomes. Andthat’s what we love about you.
