An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and experienced midwife to join our community midwifery team as a team leader.
We look after a diverse population where women/birthing people and their families are treated as individuals providing personalised care.
We are at the forefront of innovation, this includes partners staying overnight, enhanced recovery, and midwifery led induction of labour and normalising birth. We work closely alongside Health Visitors who are also part of our integrated service.
We provide a first class service, which is reflected in the number of positive compliments received from our satisfied service users.
We have a beautiful Birth Centre with four pools and our Labour Ward has two birthing pools and telemetry to encourage normality.
Our midwives work a varied range of shifts and hours in all areas of midwifery including days, nights and weekends as well as an on call basis to support women birthing at home.
The successful applicant will lead a team of midwives providing both continuity of carer and traditional community midwifery services in Haringey and Islington, based at the Whittington hospital. The post holder will be responsible for delivering high quality antenatal, intrapartum and post natal care for women and their families, whilst aiding the team to meet the national ambitions for continuity of carer as well as key performance indicators such as antenatal and newborn screening targets and booking in for maternity care by 9+3 weeks gestation. Please see the job description for full details of our expectations.
Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
