An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the established team of Practice Education Facilitators (PEF) at Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust. The post holder will be responsible for ensuring the provision of high quality multi-professional learning environments within LWH. The post holder will be required to support the breadth of the nursing and AHP student experience, which may require cross boundary working, and contribute to the delivery of the new Quality Assurance Framework for Clinical Education for Nurses and Midwives within the organisation.
The post holder will need a broad range of post qualifying clinical demonstrable experience for a minimum of 3 years as an NMC registrant, including experience of teaching and supervising healthcare students in the practice setting.
The existing PEF team consists of registered midwives so a registered nurse or AHP would add a wide range of expertise, and would be the lead for overseeing the practice education of student nurses and ODP's when on placement at LWH. Staff training delivery and support will form a significant element of the role.
Liverpool Women’s NHS FT became part ofNHS University Hospitals of Liverpool Group (UHLG)in November 2024, following the coming together with Liverpool University Hospitals NHS FT. UHLG was born from a shared aim to improve the care we provide to our patients.
UHLG is one of the largest employers in the region, with over 16,800 colleagues who are dedicated to caring for our communities - from birth and beyond. For the 630,000 people across Merseyside, UHLG is also their local NHS, providing general and emergency hospital care, alongside highly specialised regional services for more than two million people in the North West.
At Liverpool Women’s Hospital, each year we deliver approximately 7,500 babies, carry out around 50,000 gynaecological inpatient and outpatient procedures, care for over 1,000 poorly and premature newborns, perform around 1,000 IVF cycles, and conduct over 4,000 genetic appointments.
We believe that this, along with a strong dedication to research and innovation, makes us the specialist health provider of choice in Europe for women, babies and families.
