✨ Day in the life of a support worker doing 8-4 in the antenatal clinic ✨

To start the day I open up all the clinic rooms and make sure they’re clean and appropriately stocked with clinical equipment before setting up my own room. Then I log onto the computer and see what consultant/midwife clinics are running that day.

The main duties of a support worker working in antenatal clinic are…
🩺 ensuring blood pressure and urine dips are carried out on all patients who have a clinic appointment
🩹taking bloods
🌡️chaperoning doctors during patient examinations
📄inputting fetal screening results on patient records

Have you ever seen this machine and wondered what it does?
This is a Cardiotography machine otherwise referred to as a ‘CTG’. A CTG is used in pregnancy to monitor a baby’s heart rate and mother’s uterine contractions. The specific machine shown above is a Dawes Redman CTG and completes a computerised analysis which can can take up to 10 - 60 minutes. A CTG can only be used from 26 weeks onwards in pregnancy.
