Antenatal & Newborn Screening Specialist Midwife

3 weeks ago

Oldham, United Kingdom Northern Care Alliance NHS Group Full time

**Job overview**:
As the Antenatal & Newborn Screening Specialist Midwife you will monitor and run the ANNB screening programmes in line with national standards and service specifications.

You will need to be naturally responsive to the changing demands on your priorities and workloads, and manage your own diary efficiently. The post holder will need to be confident enough to instigate and drive local change to meet the expectations and standards set by the national programmes.

The role will be cross-site to cover both The Royal Oldham Hospital and Rochdale Infirmary. You will need to be willing to travel flexibly to both sites and to outside events/meetings as and when necessary.

**Our commitment to you**

You will have the full support and guidance of the senior management team in all aspects of your role, and a comprehensive induction/handover will be provided. You will be included in all key meetings (both internal and regional), and for your continuing professional development will be encouraged to attend training/information/update events run by NHS England and other relevant parties.

**Main duties of the job**:
In order to fulfil the needs of this role you will need to be caring and empathic, but also tenacious and resilient. Communication is key - so promoting good relationships with your colleagues and the wider multi-disciplinary team should come naturally to you.

Your role will involve counselling women about antenatal and newborn screen positive results, so you should have some experience in communicating complex information and breaking bad news when unexpected results arise.

Part of your role will involve the on-going training and education of colleagues, so an ability to present and talk publicly would be beneficial.

If you are keen to develop your career, and feel this describes your experience and abilities, we would be delighted to hear from you

**Working for our organisation**:
The Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust (NCA) provides hospital and integrated health and social care services to over one million people living across Greater Manchester. Our 20,000 colleagues care for people in hospital and in the community, working across Bury, Rochdale, Oldham and Salford, to save and improve lives.

As a large NHS trust we are committed to enhancing the health of our local population by delivering consistently high standards of care and working closely with local authorities and key partners. We believe in our power and potential to **make a difference** and we’re always looking for people who demonstrate our three core values - **care**, **appreciate** and **inspire** - to join our team.

In return, we can offer you a job role with purpose and flexibility. The size and scale of the NCA means we can provide more challenge and opportunities so your career can always be moving in the right direction. By joining us you can also access a competitive benefits package, including, a fantastic annual leave allowance, flexible working opportunities and protected hours for health and wellbeing activities, helping you to achieve more personal downtime and a better work-life balance.

**Detailed job description and main responsibilities**:
Oldham Care Organisation is part of the Northern Care Alliance, one of the largest NHS organisations in the country. The place where the world’s first IVF baby was delivered, Oldham is a town of pioneering firsts. Today, Oldham is responsible for delivering a range of acute and community health services across the local area and at The Royal Oldham Hospital. As a designated major trauma unit for Greater Manchester and one of only three vascular centres in Greater Manchester, Oldham is a specialist hospital for acute surgery and provides state-of-the-art onsite pathology services to the North West.

**Oldham Care Organisation**

As the Healthier Together plans continue across Greater Manchester the Oldham Care Organisation is planned to play a crucial role with the Royal Oldham Hospital being identified as a red/hub hospital for the area.

The hospital has a full accident and emergency department and offers a comprehensive range of acute, general and specialist surgical services. The site also includes a dedicated Women’s and Childrens unit, offering one of only three Tertiary maternity units in the area. It is also home to the Alliance’s state of the art pathology lab providing a range of pathology services across the region.

Recently the Royal Oldham has received encouraging feedback from the CQC recognising various improvements and the dedication of the teams in their commitment to providing exceptional care.

**This vacancy is open to those who have a current NMC PIN to practice as an Registered Nurse or Midwife in the UK, or those who are currently enrolled on a course which means they expect to receive their full NMC PIN within the next 3 months. Please note an NMC PRN PIN is not a full NMC PIN and would not fulfil the essential criteria f
