We average 30 cases per day in the Gastrointestinal Diagnostic Lab.  Our staff are specialists in the field to assist in ICU, OR or ED.  We are a close family group who work side by side with physicians.  The RN’s are cross trained to do prep/recovery of the patient, circulate in procedures and we also place a tech in the room with each case.  

The hours are generally 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., yet call runs every day so if there are late cases after the scheduled procedures are completed, then the call team will stay to finish.  The call team will come back in the middle of the night if there was an emergent need as well.
