Job overview
The MNORT (Manchester Neonatal Outreach/In-reach Team) is based on the Oxford Road Campus (Manchester) within St Mary’s Managed Clinical Service (MCS). The MNORT is based on the NICU (Newborn Intensive Care Unit) in order to ensure that Inreach services can be provided efficiently to all maternity areas and to facilitate a two way flow of information about infants being planned for discharge from Newborn Services to the community. We are looking for dynamic individuals who can adapt their neonatal skill set to the postnatal ward setting and the community. The Inreach team is an exciting service which involves the team providing a model of transitional care to babies, who are being nursed alongside their mothers within the maternity service. This supports reducing newborn separation and the maintenance of the family unit. It involves working across both neonatal and maternity unit boundaries and with the wider MDT. The Saint Mary’s MCS Outreach service involves visiting families within their homes, running community clinics across the geographical single hospital service footprint and performing virtual consultations with families. This involves pathway co-ordination and meeting with families before discharge to facilitate a high quality effective and efficient transition from hospital to home ensuring that the family’s needs are paramount.
