These posts are specialist nursing roles.  You will touch the hearts of families, as they will yours by building relationships, helping them through their experience providing emotional support.  You will see the families’ confidence grow and empower them to care for their baby from admission to discharge, to the journey home.   It is a unique experience to be able to continue give the family back the decision making of the baby’s care, with your support.

Band 6 Neonatal Deputy Home Care Sisters/Home Care Deputy Charge Nurses based at NUH are required to promote safe, early discharge of babies from the neonatal units, transitional care and paediatrics. Families will be supported by providing ongoing care needs in the home environment, for example the provision of nasogastric tube feeding at home, management of oxygen in the home environment, providing ongoing care for surgical babies, and the jaundice management of the baby requiring phototherapy at home.  The Home Care team roles are pivotal to the families care.  The service enables earliest, safest discharges home to bring the whole family back together
