Do you enjoy working autonomously?
Would your ideal job be to be the first point of contact for women coming into the unit?
Do you enjoy assessing different situations and referring to the correct department or giving advice?
Do you enjoy variety in your job?
If so, we are looking for an experienced Midwife to complement our existing team of Hospital Based Triage Midwives.
About the Role
Our Triage department is the first point of call for all women coming or calling into the unit.
We are looking for a dynamic, inspirational midwife to transfer their existing skills and interests to our unit. Midwives that join our triage team are based in triage but may be required to be redeployed very occasionally to the delivery suite.
About Us
We have level 2 Baby friendly accreditation and rated “GOOD” at the last CQC inspection in July 2021.
As a trust, we care for approximately 6000 births every year and cover a very diverse population. This is an exciting opportunity for midwives, who are passionate about making a difference to join our team of highly skilled midwives in maternity.
We want to help you develop and enhance your skills and maximise your potential in all aspects of midwifery. We actively encourage staff development and have a fantastic clinical education team to provide our in house, multidisciplinary professional development training. We have excellent links with local universities for post registration development.
