Summary
Please note: This role does not meet the minimum criteria for visa sponsorship under the current UK immigration rules, which set specific salary and skill thresholds. As such, we are unable to provide sponsorship for this post. Applicants will therefore need to already have the right to work in the UK to be considered. We include this information at the outset to provide clarity and avoid unnecessary inconvenience for applicants. If you do not meet the sponsorship requirements, and you are applying using a Graduate visa as your right to work, you must have a minimum of 18 months remaining on your visa at time of application. Patient Care Delivery Take full responsibility for assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating Midwifery care consistent with evidence based practice for parents, babies and families. Discuss options and support parents in making informed choice in their plan of care such as Birth plans, pain relief, infant feeding, baby care, return to work and family planning. Discuss options and support parents in making informed choice in the period following birth. Analyse and evaluate the effectiveness of such care, making necessary modifications of any midwifery care pathway and giving professional advice and support as required. Act as the clients advocate and empower them to promote their own health and well being. Respect the need for privacy and dignity and obtain clients informed consent throughout the childbirth continuum. Refer clients to other practitioners e.g. senior midwife, obstetrician, physiotherapist and paediatrician when needs and risks are beyond the post holders scope of practice or require specialist input.
