As the only fully private maternity hospital in the UK, delivering 1,500 babies a year, we place great importance on providing safe and high-quality care for expectant mothers. Both consultant-led and midwife-led maternity care is available, and our aim is to provide all the support you need during pregnancy, childbirth and beyond. Women’s health issues are treated by a team of 40 consultants, supported by nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists and counsellors, with an emphasis on privacy and dignity.
As the Staff Midwife, you will be responsible and accountable for the provision of high-quality care within the maternity setting.
