As a team, we are working hard to ensure we put women and families at the heart of everything we do. We are on an exciting improvement journey and can offer you a rewarding, flexible, and supportive role providing a full range of midwifery care.
We are offering positions which are rotational between the labour ward and the post/antenatal wards, and will be supported to complete a preceptorship programme in line with the NHSE National Preceptorship Programme for Midwifery.
This post is supported by NHSE funding and is a 12-month fixed-term contract. This advert is a Trust Wide post, but you will have a base site in acute maternity departments at Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother in Margate or William Harvey Hospital in Ashford.
We are focused on providing outstanding, safe patient care, and a positive working culture that benefits staff and patients alike. This is why we ask you to:
* maintain the confidentiality of information about patients, staff, and other health service business and adhere to data protection law
* comply with the Trust’s policies and procedures, including infection prevention and control, risk management, health and safety, safeguarding children and adults, financial management, and use of resources
* act at all times in accordance with the professional Codes of Conduct and Accountability relevant to your role
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 800,000 people. Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: 'People feel cared for, safe, respected, and confident that we are making a difference’. We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called 'We care'. It's about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day.
