About us
The Children's Allied Health Professionals have an open and sharing culture to support the development of local pathways. With effective AHP leadership and integration combined with an AHP team already working with neonatal populations, we can offer benefits of supervision, follow up/continuity of care, resilience, career opportunities and succession planning. We are also committed to support ongoing clinical and leadership development.
The Trust has a strong culture of co-production, with a very successful event for neonatal families having already taken place to design the service branding. With a Quality Improvement approach to innovation and service development, CWPT are a Global Digital Exemplar member, focusing on service improvement through high quality digital interfaces.
We need you to develop and shape this new service as it grows, ensuring that babies and families across the system receive the universal, targeted, and specialised services to suit their needs.
