Are you a midwife who believes that where a woman births matters, and that real choice requires a skilled, confident advocate at her side?
We're looking for a passionate Band 6 midwife to join our Birth Centre team at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, attending homebirths as lead midwife and supporting women choosing our alongside birth centre.
This is a role for someone who thrives on autonomy, continuity, and connection. You'll conduct holistic risk assessments, be a visible champion for personalised, evidence-based care, mentor junior staff, and contribute to a service committed to reducing health inequalities.
Responsibilities
* Promote and facilitate choice for those wishing to birth at home and support women who choose to birth in the alongside birth centre.
* Continually undertake holistic risk assessments to support appropriate care delivery.
* Work in partnership with the wider multidisciplinary team, enabling coordinated care and making appropriate referrals when necessary.
* Actively contribute to reducing health inequalities by supporting a service that is accessible to all.
