Have you heard about the transformation of our Health Visiting Service in Haringey?
We are looking for practitioners who want to work and learn as a team, who are warm and engaging with a sound understanding of the Healthy Child Programme and Safeguarding policy and practice. We have an exciting development within our service and will be implementing The Maternal Early Childhood Sustained Home-visiting (MECSH) programme this year to the families in Haringey.
We can offer you friendly supportive teams, regular supervision and extensive evidence based training with skills practice to carry out your role. We have an excellent support package in place for Newly Qualified Health Visitors.
Medical services have been delivered on the Whittington Hospital site for over 500 years. On 1st April 2011, Whittington Health was launched as a new Integrated Care Organisation (ICO) comprising The Whittington Hospital NHS Trust, NHS Islington and NHS Haringey. The Whittington and the community health services in Islington and Haringey are award winning organisations, delivering acute and community based health services to a population of 443,000 people.
The organisation is the biggest employer in the area, with over 4,500 staff; delivering healthcare not only on the acute hospital site which has 420 beds, but also from a variety of other community based health centres and through visits to patients homes across the boroughs to address the health needs of the local population. Whittington Health also works with other health, social care and voluntary sector partners to support patients and service users from their initial appointment whether it be with a community health team or at the hospital, all the way through to treatment and tailored after care.
We are one of the three main teaching campuses for the Royal Free and University College Medical School.
Our ICARE (Innovation, Compassion, Accountability, Respect and Excellence) Values not only help us shape what we do, but also how we do it and why. They are fundamental to the way we do business and care for our patients.
