The primary role of the Maternity Support Worker (MSW) is to assist, support and work in collaboration with the midwife and the wider multidisciplinary team in order to provide a safe and holistic approach to women centred care.
The midwife is ultimately responsible for the care of the mother and her new-born(s), and it is under the direct or indirect supervision of the midwife that the MSW assists with and provides clinical care following completion of any relevant or appropriate training. The post is rotational and the employee will be provided with appropriate training for the clinical setting in which they are working. These settings include antenatal inpatient or outpatient care, intrapartum inpatient care and postnatal inpatient and outpatient care.
Do you have the required skills or qualifications to work at a Band 3 Level?
We are currently looking to recruit a Maternity Support Worker at Band 3. This is an exciting opportunity to stretch you; undertaking phlebotomy, cannulation, vital signs to mention but a few.
There is also a substantial amount of work being undertaken in transformation to progress the maternity support worker role nationally and therefore there could not be a better time to consider joining our team.
We want to attract the best and brightest people to work with us and that means we will look after you from the moment you apply for a role at the Trust and throughout your career with us. Our staff are central to everything we do, and we believe that investing in you is crucial if we want to enable you to reach your full potential.
We are a friendly unit who recognises and values their staff achievements, come and have a look.
