Gastrointestinal Nurse Education

Nurses need to revalidate every 3 years. Part of this process involves the need to prove that personal knowledge has been kept up to date. Thus, it is important to undertake regular continuing professional development (CPD) to ensure safety to practice, but with busy lives it can be difficult to prioritise time.

Nurses: An update on JETS Workforce

In 2017, the Joint Advisory Group on Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (JAG) reviewed the existing endoscopy nurse training and competency frameworks. A universal process was created whereby the endoscopy workforce can be recognised for the knowledge, skills and practical expertise they hold. Several stakeholder meetings and review days were held in 2017, and the need for revision of existing programmes and standardisation of processes and e-portfolio content was agreed.

Become a BSG web education reviewer

The BSG web team are looking for enthusiastic individuals to expand our current group of web article reviewers. This could be included as part of your CPD diary and could help enrich your own knowledge too. It is a rewarding process and allows us to support our members in their education. The articles are short but require professional review and constructive comments. The commitment will be sporadic but we do ask that you’re able to return the review in a timely fashion when requested. This is open to consultants, senior registrars (ST6 and above), specialist nurses or senior allied health professionals in Gastroenterology and/or Hepatology.
