Midwifery Officer with 10+ years leading maternity care, clinical documentation, and remote telehealth support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly skilled Midwifery Officer with 10+ years of clinical experience across tertiary and primary healthcare settings. I focus on maternal and child care, evidence-based telehealth support, and clear clinical communication that patients and families can trust.
In my current role as Head of Maternity Unit at Presby Medical Center, I maintain accurate, real-time records of nursing interventions and patient progress within digital hospital management systems. I also manage complex shift rosters and operational logistics to ensure 24/7 care continuity, while overseeing unit supply chains to keep services seamless.
Previously, as a Ward In-Charge at Methodist Medical Center, I supported high clinical standards through clinical audits and quality assurance. I provided remote-capable counseling and information to families, organized staff in-service educational sessions via digital platforms, and reinforced multidisciplinary coordination.
Earlier, as a Staff Midwife at Methodist Healing Hospital, I used advanced monitoring tools to track patient status and translate clinical data into actionable care plans. I conducted detailed assessments to identify high-risk cases, bringing independent decision-making and a strong commitment to patient safety, clinical governance, and clinical documentation.
