The Diabetes Specialist Midwife (DSM) is part of the multidisciplinary team providing and coordinating the care for maternity service users with pre-existing and gestational diabetes within North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust. The post holder will be a point of contact for maternity service users with pre-existing diabetes and those who develop gestational diabetes in pregnancy.

The DSM will be responsible for the support and advice on both diabetes control and midwifery care throughout pregnancy and postnatal period liaising closely with the diabetes specialist nurses, dieticians and consultants specialising in antenatal care.


The DSM will be involved in the development and implementation of clinical protocols and guidelines for maternity service users with diabetes and will work towards developing a structured approach in diabetes care to ensure a comprehensive high quality diabetes service within maternity.


The DSM will be expected to undertake clinical audit and provide educational support for healthcare professionals and students and be involved in research projects.


To undertake assessments, provide support, education, and advice for maternity service users with pre-existing or gestational diabetes and their families to supplement the care provided by their midwives where necessary, for example working with maternity service users and their midwives to develop individual care plans, and making referrals to
additional specialist support where required.
