Our team is looking for part time midwives to come to work in Kuujjuaq for periods of 2 to 8 weeks, 2 to 8 times a year.
We are a team of Inuit and non-Inuit midwives who are dedicated to training more Inuit midwives. We work in a small hospital in a remote community (no OR, no anesthesia), where midwives provide all prenatal care, as well as care during labor and birth for low to medium risk pregnancies, with support from family doctors in cases of emergencies or higher risk pregnancies and births. We also participate in medical evacuations (by plane) from smaller communities, mostly for preterm labor and birth. Our common language of work is English, and Inuktitut is most of the population's first language, but speaking French is an asset as some of the charting is done in French.
We are looking for midwives with at least two years of experience.
Please reach out if you are interested or if you have any questions!
