Maternity Health Care Assistant Public Health

3 months ago

Carlisle, United Kingdom North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an enthusiastic and dynamic Maternity Care Assistant to support the delivery of evidenced based, equitable care in relation to public health initiatives within maternity care. This post will include the delivery of services within areas of most deprivation. It is essential that the post holder can work flexibly, independently and as part of a team. This post holder will work under the line management of the Midwife Manager for Public Health. The role will be varied, challenging, and rewarding as the services develop. You will be a motivated, passionate, organised, and proactive individual with experience in smoking cessation, infant feeding and knowledge of perinatal and infant mental health, or willingness to successfully complete training. The post is based at Cumberland Infirmary and involves working within a hospital and community environment. The post holder will be required to deliver in house education on e.g. the stop smoking agenda. The work days are between Monday and Friday and between the hours of 09:00 and 17:00.

This post will concentrate on providing the healthiest start possible to NCIC babies by providing early identification of needs, personalised smoking cessation support and intensive infant feeding information and support. Supporting women and their family’s mental/social wellbeing and providing a follow-up service for any woman with an identified need, giving additional support, particularly to vulnerable families in the community. The role will see you work as part of a small close-knit team that integrates with Maternity, Health Visiting, stop smoking advisors and community agency colleagues. With key outcomes of delivering elements of the NHS Long Term Plan by reducing smoking in pregnancy as per the maternity pathway and increasing the number of mothers initiating and sustaining breastfeeding there is lots of scope for the team to identify needs early and make flexible adjustments to the service offer.

At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding hospital and health services to half a million people. Established on 1st October 2019, the Trust is creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout north Cumbria and beyond. We’re responsible for delivering over 70 services across 15 main locations and we employ more than 6,500 members of staff.

Our 5 key principles demonstrate our belief in the delivery of ‘safe, high quality care every time’.
- Being a clinically led organisation
- Quality and safety at the heart
- A positive patient experience every time
- A great place to work
- Managing our money well

As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.

Across the North East and North Cumbria we are working together to deliver our ambition to be the greenest region in England by 2030. There is an expectation for all staff to support this by familiarising yourself with the Trust’s sustainability initiatives such as waste and recycling, going paperless, videoconferencing, sustainable transport and others.

We encourage you to think about what you can do as an individual and within your team to contribute in to embedding carbon reduction into the everyday running of our organisation.
