People caring for people:

A key role within Endoscopy, you will effectively deliver quality sterilisation services to the department, through maintaining infection control standards and practicing high standards of disinfection and sterilisation of equipment. You will coordinate your own activities throughout the day, documenting your work, and maintaining accountability for the safe and sterile delivery and assembly of equipment prior to procedures.
