Uxbridge, United Kingdom The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The midwife provides the necessary supervision, care and advice to women during pregnancy, labour and the post-partum period, conducts deliveries on her own responsibility and cares for the newborn and the infant. The care includes preventative measures, the detection of abnormal conditions in mother and child, the procurement of medical assistance and the
execution of emergency measures in the absence of medical help. This is in line with the NMC Code.

This is a rotational midwifery post allowing for development and experience to be gained by working as an integral member of the midwifery team. There is a recognised preceptorship period for newly qualified
midwives who need to consolidate, build confidence and gain core competencies to attain the knowledge and skills.
