Caseloading Community Midwife

The team vision & philosophy is to empower women and their families to begin parenting feeling confident, capable and well-supported in giving their child the best start in life. In addition, reduce the impact of inequalities amongst maternal and neonatal healthcare. Delivering this vision and supporting women and their families to make sustainable changes, will help decrease the generational impact often associated with hard-to-reach groups. Furthermore, break down barriers and address the associated links with 'Adverse Childhood Experiences' (ACE's).

The overall primary goal is to achieve: Healthy Pregnancy, Healthy Mother, Healthy Baby.

As a caseloading midwife you will be planning and implementing individualised midwifery led care, in partnership with the woman and the multidisciplinary team. Using continual assessment and analysis you will provide continuity of carer throughout the woman's pregnancy, birth and postnatal period to ensure her medical, psychological and social needs are assessed and holistically cared for. As a caseload midwife you will be working alongside multi professional teams providing the most appropriate care for women whilst breaking down barriers that can inhibit women with socially complex lives accessing high quality maternity care.
