Community Midwife (Complex Needs) Opportunity
We are looking for enthusiastic and motivated Community Midwife (Complex Needs) to join our dedicated maternity team.
This is an exciting opportunity for a midwife who is passionate about providing individualised and inclusive care to women and pregnant people who may experience additional social, emotional, psychological or clinical complexities during pregnancy and the postnatal period.
About the Role
As a Complex Needs Community Midwife, you will provide personalised midwifery care, working collaboratively with women, families and a wide range of health and social care professionals.
We are looking for a registered midwife who is compassionate, resilient, non-judgemental and committed to personalised care.
You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to work autonomously, and the confidence to work as part of a multidisciplinary team. Experience of working with women and families experiencing complex social or clinical circumstances would be highly desirable.
Most importantly, you will share our commitment to ensuring that every woman and family feels heard, respected and supported throughout their maternity journey.
