Education-responsible midwives sought for Gynecology and Obstetrics, Gødstrup Regional Hospital

Are you a dedicated midwife with a passion for both education and the midwifery profession?

We have three positions as Educationally Responsible Midwife available for filling as of January 1, 2027.

The positions are full-time combined roles with 25 hours/week allocated to education tasks, and the remaining 12 hours/week in clinical functions on the maternity ward, antenatal and parental leave ward, consultation, mobile midwife, acute clinic or other clinical work.

As Educationally Responsible Midwives you will be a central team in our department with responsibility for planning, coordinating and managing the students' education based on the applicable study regulations, and thus responsible for supporting the coherence between the theoretical and clinical parts.

The department's goal is to offer education of high professional and pedagogical quality, in a safe, well-organized and developmental learning environment for both students and supervisors. We have study places for 18 midwifery students per semester.

With the appointment on January 1 there will during the spring semester be an overlap with your predecessors and thus an opportunity for an introduction to the tasks. Hours not used in the role as Educationally Responsible Midwife during this period will be included in the department's overall on-call planning, and in this way there will be a smooth transition to the role of Educationally Responsible Midwife. Individually agreed how this transition is planned within the period 1.1. to 1.7.

The Educationally Responsible Midwives have offices in close relation to the maternity ward.
