Staff Midwife Band 5/6

5 months ago

Kirkcaldy, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

We currently have an exciting opportunity available for you within our inpatient and outpatient maternity services. The vacant post is open to band 5 or 6 midwives and will offer extensive training.

NHS Fife maternity is a modern, thriving and progressive unit with approximately 3200 births per year. The services include outpatient and community services, a complex care Consultant Unit and an alongside Midwife Led Unit.

Our community services include a dedicated Birth at Home team who have doubled the number of Home Births in Fife in the last 2 years and operates a Continuity of Carer model.

We have a Scottish Health Award Winner in the ‘Midwife of the Year’ category 2020 with our Vulnerable in Pregnancy Service. This eight strong team consists of specialist midwives, nurses and nursery nurses who provide an exemplary service for women and families. The team provide specialist care for families with child protection concerns, learning needs, social challenges linked to deprivation and gender based violence.

In 2017 the Scottish Government published BEST START, their 5 year plan for maternity and Neonatal Care. Within Best Start there were 76 recommendations, 23 of which were deliverable at local level.

We also have facilitated through redesign and training over 200 transitional care babies to remain with their mum within the postnatal ward. Our dedication to Best Start has continued throughout the global pandemic.

We have a thriving fast paced Maternity assessment unit that provides care to women with worries or concerns with their pregnancy out with their routine scheduled visits of care.

Last year our maternity Assessment unit provided over 17,000 triage phone assessments and in excess of 7000 face to face consultations. Our service runs between the hours of 0730 and 0100hrs 7 days per week offering varying shift patterns.

NHS Fife’s appreciation and nurture of Midwife led care is longstanding. Our alongside unit opened its doors in 1993 and has gone from strength to strength. Being revolutionary for its time, it has continued to be progressive and has been recognised nationally for the work in VBAC water birth. We aim to remain at the forefront of midwife led care and have more recently been a key contributor in the development of the MUSA Tool (Midwifery Unit Standards Assessment Tool) in conjunction with the University of London. Where the aim, is to have European Midwife Led Unit standards for all.

We will encourage you with your professional development education via our dedicated clinical midwife educator and midwifery PEF. We have an extremely successful in house leadership programme and regularly encourage staff to participate in external networking.

An organisations culture and values cascades from its leadership. Our Head of Midwifery was a Royal College of Midwives national awards nominated finalist in 2021 for her work and dedication to staff well being during a Global Pandemic. This if nothing else should let you know how much NHS Fife values its staff.

Women and families are at the centre of all we do. We are progressive, dynamic and willing; all that is missing from our service is YOU.

You must be a NMC Registered Midwife, educated to degree level. In addition you should possess enthusiasm, excellent team working skills with effective communication.

For informal enquiries, please contact Pamela Higgins - Interim Inpatient Clinical Midwifery Manager on 01592 729768 or 07971916562.

A requirement of this post is to become a member of the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme Prior to appointment.

Please note the salary is pro rata for part time hours.
