NHS Endoscopy Conference: Integrating Endoscopy Services for the Next Decade
A Strategic Summit on Capacity, Workforce, and Patient Experience - All Convenzis Events Provide 8 CPD Points Per Delegate
NHS endoscopy services are experiencing unprecedented demand, driven by population growth, screening programmes, and the increasing need for early diagnosis. Expanding capacity while ensuring safety, quality, and patient-centred care has become a strategic imperative. Health systems must innovate to make endoscopy pathways resilient, efficient, and capable of delivering equitable outcomes for all patients.
For those requiring surgery or more complex procedures, emerging robotic technologies in endoscopy are creating opportunities to deliver care closer to home. These innovations are reducing reliance on hospital-based diagnostics, streamlining care, and enhancing the patient experience.
Simultaneously, digital transformation including AI integration and robust accreditation frameworks such as JAG are reshaping service delivery. The sector faces the dual challenge of scaling capacity while embedding best practice and workforce development across complex, multi-site systems. This summit offers a collaborative forum for leaders to explore practical solutions, share insights, and drive sustainable improvements in endoscopy care.
Summit Focus:
The NHS Endoscopy Conference Summit is a premier event for sharing best practices and innovations, designed to help NHS professionals move from awareness to applied implementation. Delegates will gain hands-on frameworks, tested delivery models, and peer-derived insights on how to embed safe, equitable, and sustainable transformation within their services.
Dedicated Skill Clinics will provide practical tools, checklists, and templates to support capacity planning, workforce deployment, and pathway redesign. Lessons Learned Sessions offer candid reflections from NHS leaders on real-world challenges, including workforce gaps, equipment utilisation, and process optimisation.
This is not a showcase of what to achieve, but a skills exchange on how to achieve it, translating national ambition into measurable improvement.
This year’s event is structured around clear outcomes. Delegates will leave understanding:
- Aligning endoscopy capacity with demand through data-driven planning.
- Integrating AI and digital solutions to support staff and improve efficiency.
- Addressing workforce shortages and enhancing staff capability.
- Embedding JAG accreditation standards and patient safety governance.
- Streamlining patient pathways to deliver measurable service improvements.
- Enhancing patient experience and equity across endoscopy services.
