Here at 黑料网, we are proud to be able to facilitate an average of 2,200 births per year. As a Trust, we offer birth in three areas: our obstetric led unit, alongside birth centre and at home.

We have recently had a new relocated Day Assessment Unit and alongside birth centre open, so it's an exciting time to come and work here as we move forward with delivering exceptional care to expectant mothers and their families. We work closely with our Local Maternity Neonatal System (LMNS) with colleagues in Bath and Swindon to ensure a collaborative approach to maternity care across the region and we are now looking to recruit exceptional candidates to come and join our existing team.

As a Maternity Care Assistant, we will support your ability to work within all areas of our maternity unit, supporting families through every aspect of their childbearing journey. We also have community roles to complete new-born screening tests and support outpatient services.

As a newly qualified midwife you鈥檒l be offered a structured and supportive preceptorship programme, to support your clinical skills, experiences and future career aspirations within all inpatient settings.

As an experienced midwife you will have opportunity to work either in the hospital or community setting. We will offer an individualised induction programme, including clinical training and supernumerary support. We offer a wide range of development opportunities to learn new skills or further your career.

As a department we fully understand the importance of staff development and want to promote an environment where life-long learning is central to all of our aspirations. Therefore, whether it鈥檚 a short in-house programme or a longer-term educational commitment, we鈥檒l always be keen to listen and support wherever possible. We support a wide variety of CPD courses for all staff groups within Maternity and are keen to listen to feedback to offer individualised learning to improve the quality of care we provide families.

Our Maternity Education Team will oversee your induction into the department and are always available to provide guidance and support as you develop into your role. This induction will be tailored to your individual needs and include training support and supernumerary time to allow a smooth transition to our department.

As a Maternity care assistant, there are some new opportunities for development, including a Level 3 Maternity support worker apprenticeship. We work closely with the Education Centre in the Trust to support our staff to reach their full potential and future career aspirations.

We offer a structured programme for preceptorship for all newly qualified midwives or those midwives returning to the NMC register. This involves working with our experienced registered midwives, providing opportunities and training to learn additional clinical skills and reflecting on practice with your peers. The programme runs over a minimum of 12 months, allowing experience in all inpatient areas, consolidating skills and embedding confidence. Following this programme, we will support you to work in community settings to further your learning.

Even as an experienced midwife, we strive to provide further learning to support your professional needs. This encompasses opportunities to become a NIPE practitioner, leadership courses and specialised maternity care (including critical care). We aim to develop midwives into future leaders by providing development programmes in specialised roles, for example, labour ward co-ordinators, bereavement and education.

Even for our midwifery leaders, we have improved our development programmes. This includes courses for our labour ward co-ordinators and leadership training for those new to leading a team. We have embedded coaching skills and compassionate care in to lead roles within our department to support staff at every level and provide a nurturing and positive learning environment for all.
