Northern Endoscopy Training Academy - NETA

📚 New Resource for GI & Endoscopy Professionals 📚

We’re delighted to share the release of Gastrointestinal Nursing: Care and Management of Digestive Disorders, edited by Leigh Donnelly and Shellie Radford.

“Gastrointestinal Nursing provides an evidence-based overview of common GI diseases, explaining digestive processes and the roles of secretion and elimination. Each chapter focuses on a specific organ, covering conditions in terms of causes, development, symptoms, diagnosis, investigations, and both surgical and medical management.” - Leigh Donnelly

Congratulations to Leigh, a Clinical Endoscopist from Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, and her colleague Shellie Radford on this fantastic achievement 👏

Our North East and Yorkshire footprint 📍

Here’s a look at the trusts that make up the North East and Yorkshire Endoscopy Training Academy, including our lead immersion sites (shown in green) and base units across the region.

Following the impact of COVID on endoscopy provision and training, the footprint was developed to strengthen training opportunities and support services across both the North East and Yorkshire. This map shows how NETA and YETA work together to support teams across the whole region.

Welcome to the official page for the Northern Endoscopy Training Academy (NETA).

The North East and Yorkshire Endoscopy Training Academy (NEYETA) was established in response to the significant reduction in endoscopy provision and endoscopy training caused by the COVID pandemic.

The academy has 2 regional footprints with NETA covering the North East & North Cumbria and YETA covering Pan-Yorkshire.

For all enquiries regarding training and services, please contact the Northern Endoscopy Training Academy using the details provided above.
We will respond to your query at the earliest opportunity.
