The midwifery team at the Coombe is part of a wider team caring for each patient that comes in through the Hospital doors, and all of our staff play a key role in each patient’s experience here.
On International Day of the Midwife, we celebrate their passion and we look forward to growing our team.”
Saira Munir, Midwife at the Coombe Women & Infants University Hospital said:
“The Coombe is a wonderful place to work and I’m very proud to be a part of our fantastic midwifery team.
Being a midwife doesn’t come without its challenges, so it’s great to be a part of such a hugely supportive team, from varying backgrounds and levels of experience.
To be able to celebrate midwives across the world, and my own colleagues and friends, on International Day of the Midwife is something really special.”
The theme of this year’s International Day of the Midwife is ‘100 Years of Progress,’ reflecting on progress in midwifery over the past 100 years.
The Coombe strives to provide a supportive working environment and flexible working hours as well as funding further education, supporting skills development and facilitating career progression.
