Job Advert

Neonatal Nurse Band 5 Neonatal Unit, Aberdeen Maternity Hospital.

Interview date : 19th May 2023

Are you considering a new challenge within neonatal care?

Do you have the energy and drive to make a difference to the service we provide to our babies and families?

Do you wish to work in a newly custom designed and built level 3 neonatal unit within the Baird family Hospital opening in 2024?

Aberdeen Neonatal Unit is the North of Scotland tertiary referral centre which has 34 cots for premature and newborn infants with both medical and surgical problems. We provide care for over 700 babies and families per year in our intensive, high dependency and special care nurseries alongside a busy transitional care area and a well-established neonatal outreach service.

As a member of our team, you will be supported to be flexible, reliable and motivated to foster a positive working environment which encourages staff to show initiative and thrive. Quality improvement work is regularly ongoing in our neonatal centre of excellence.

We are extremely proud to be baby friendly accredited and working towards Bliss accreditation. Family integrated care is the model of care, working in partnership with families, reducing separation and continually empowering families on every step of their journey.

We also operate a regional Neonatal Transport Service.

Ideally, candidates will be a children’s nurse who are Qualified in Specialty (QIS - Neonatal Intensive Care) and looking to further develop their career within this specialised area of nursing. We are also keen to hear from registered adult nurses and midwives who are keen to develop their skills in neonatal care and undertake QIS training.

The post is rotational day and night duty, including weekends
