We are delighted to announce that we have welcomed twenty new Midwives to our wards at the Jessop Wing over the past few months.
Pictured here on a non-clinical training day, the newly qualified Midwives have each undergone three years’ training to earn their degree in Midwifery and have completed an intensive induction period. We also welcome four International Midwives who have joined us from oversees. The Midwives will now rotate around the wards at Jessop Wing on a four weekly basis to consolidate their clinical skills whilst supporting families during their most special moments.
Newly Qualified Midwife Hafsa Deria said: “I wanted to work at Sheffield after completing my training here at Jessop Wing, the staff have been very supportive and welcoming. Being able to advocate for women and being a part of a new family beginning is such an honour and privilege."
Pastoral Support Lead Kate Fearn said: “We are so proud to welcome our new Midwives to the team, it has been a privilege to support them in this transitional period and to continue to support them moving forward to provide the best care for our patients.”
We are delighted to be seeing success from our active recruitment plans and look forward to welcoming more staff throughout the year.
