Trosolwg o'r swydd
The Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) provides care for premature babies and/or sick newborn babies that require admission. Neonatal Transitional Care (NTC) provides care for a wide range of newborn babies who are medically stable and predominantly well but require additional observation, treatment and support; more than that which is usually provided within the usual post-natal care pathway.
The role of the Nursing Associate/Nursery Nurses on both the SCBU and the NTC will be to work independently under the leadership of Registered Nurses/Midwives, working within the sphere of nursing care and within all aspects of the nursing process.
The post holder will be rotating between both SCBU and NTC to provide holistic family centred care for Special Care infants under supervision of Postnatal Ward Midwives/SCBU Nurse in Charge, to actively support breastfeeding initiatives and to educate, support and encourage parents to care for their babies and facilitate timely discharge.
