Abstract<\/h2>\n

Objective: The aim of this article is to describe and evaluate the processes involved in setting up a nurse\u2011led bladder cancer surveillance flexible cystoscopy service.
\nSetting: Day Surgery Unit, Royal Melbourne Hospital, Melbourne, Australia.
\nSubjects: Registered nurses, follow\u2011up bladder cancer patients and the urological team.
\nPrimary argument: As a result of inefficiencies in current practice including, waiting times, utilisation of doctors\u2019 time, poor documentation and communication and patients being lost to follow\u2011up the existing system for bladder cancer surveillance was questioned.
\nConclusion: This experience has resulted in the creation of a training\u2011tool with competencies, patient pathways, guidelines and protocols. In turn there was a noticeable reduction in waiting times and improved communication and documentation resulting in a robust nurse\u2011 led bladder cancer surveillance service.<\/p>\n
