Celebrating International Day of the Midwife
Monday 5 May 2025 is International Day of the Midwife which give us the opportunity to show our appreciation to all of our midwives.
They provide excellent care for our patients and their families, whether in their own homes, at Rotherham Hospital, or at one of our community hubs.
Midwifery is one of the oldest professions in the world. It provides care, expertise and support to women, babies and families at one of the most important times in their lives.
Jemma, one of our midwives, has spoken about the privilege of working in a maternity setting: “These people are the strongest they’ll ever be, at the most vulnerable they’ll ever feel. It’s really beautiful and empowering to see somebody have that moment.
Watch a short video of Jemma, along with colleagues Hayley, Sarah and Ruki, talking about their midwifery careers.
