Gastroenterology nurses are registered nurses who specialize in caring for patients with illnesses and disorders affecting the digestive system or gastrointestinal tract. Known also as a gastrointestinal or GI nurse, gastroenterology nurses primarily treat patients with stomach and bowel problems and assist GI physicians in diagnosing and treating diverse medical conditions impacting these areas. Issues with the digestive tract often produce extremely uncomfortable symptoms and can impact the health of the body as a whole. GI nurses play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality, custom treatments to enhance GI and overall health.

Gastroenterology nurses may hold Basic Life Support (BLS) or Certified Gastroenterology Registered Nurse (CGRN), among others.

Some healthcare employers may prefer gastroenterology nurse job candidates with Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC), and some may even require specific professional certifications.

Having a Certified Nutrition Support Clinician (CNSC) validates your knowledge and skills as a gastroenterology nurse and your dedication to continuing your education in your chosen field. All of which makes you a more desirable job candidate to healthcare employers.
