аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Íø

аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Íø is seeking members to join a working group to develop a Framework for Practice on Neonatal Community Outreach Care.

Neonatal Community Outreach (NCOT) care supports the transition from acute unit care to community/home care, it should be delivered by neonatal expert teams with enhanced skills to support families in caring for their baby in the home environment. NCOT services have been developed with a limited framework and insufficient standardisation and this has created inequitable services for families across all areas of NHS.

This framework will outline what is needed to develop high quality NCOT services, including standardisation of care, recommended service models and levels of staffing, access to specialised services and skill sets for NCOT staff. The document will set out robust governance pathways in order to ensure that units, LMNSs and Networks deliver safe, resilient, and effective services.

Vacancies* on the group are:

  • 1 Consultant
  • 1 Trainee
  • 1 Nurse / ANNP – discharge specialist
  • 1 Nurse / ANNP – outreach specialist
  • 1 Midwife
  • 1 Nursery Nurse – outreach specialist
  • 1 Care Coordinator
  • 1 Parent / carer – TBC

No previous experience of аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Íø working groups is required and applications from аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±Íø members will be given priority.
