Midwives are usually the lead care givers in uncomplicated cases. We have organised our maternity facilities to ensure that our midwives are able to give expectant mothers the high levels of personal support that they have trained for. In our Basingstoke hospital we have two birthing suites (with a birthing pool, mood lighting, music facilities and en-suite facilities) and six well-resourced labour rooms, all with enough space to move around in. In Winchester we have seven birthing rooms, each individually decorated and similarly well equipped, and in Andover we have a dedicated Maternity Centre staffed by an experienced team of midwives and maternity health care assistants supported by obstetricians and paediatricians from the Winchester team.

A rewarding career with additional benefits

Our staff park for free at our hospitals and benefit from subsidised on-site children’s nurseries. Our staff are offered a range of subsidised exercise classes and pamper treatments, benefit from subsidised on site restaurants and get above basic annual, maternity, paternity and adoption leave.

Hear what some of our team have to say…

“My manager is very proactive with our training and encourages our development and learning.”
“I love talking to patients, I could talk for days – I always get called a chatter box! When a patient is worried or anxious, I try to help and calm them down by talking to them. I’m currently training someone, which I never thought I would do. I love it because it means my team trust me to share my wisdom with someone new!”
“I have been here for twelve years and I particularly like the supportive environment - there is always someone to ask and someone to talk to.”
“I was attracted to the area because of what I heard about the surroundings and how close to London you are. I took the opportunity to move away from home, broaden my horizons and progress my career.”
“The hospital accommodation at Basingstoke is a couple of minutes walk from the hospital. Things like broadband, electricity and water are all included in the rent and there is a laundry – you don’t have to worry about anything and the staff are really helpful.”
“We’ve got a good reputation, we give good quality care and we work as a team.”
“We are dynamic and we want to lead from the front. You learn a lot when you are here. It’s first class.”
