Job Description
Contract Details
Although this position is a 24 months fixed-term contract, the actual contract duration will be adjusted to account for the time taken to advertise the post, complete the hiring process, and finalise pre-employment checks. This means the contract will begin when the candidate starts the role and may be slightly shorter than 24 months.
Course Overview
The two-year Postgraduate Diploma in Midwifery aims to produce competent, caring, autonomous, and evidenced-based midwives, capable of delivering effective woman-centred care for mothers, birthing people, and their families in any context.
Midwives of the 21st century practice within dynamic, rapidly changing, and diverse contexts and require personal, academic, and professional skills to practice in an optimum way.
During the two-year course, time will be spent 50% with London South Bank University Southwark and 50% with Newham University Hospital Barts Health NHS Trust.
This course can open up an exciting career in Midwifery with a diverse range of opportunities to enhance your future careers.
