Miscarriage campaign - next steps

3 replies

Hi all

As many of you will know, we launched a miscarriage campaign a while back to try to do something about the awful experiences that some women (and their partners) have when they miscarry. We came up with a ten point plan, and since then we have been lobbying relevant bodies to get these issues looked at.

Now that we've given the new government a few months to bed in, we reckon it's time we started making a bigger noise about this in government and Department of Health circles. Before we do so, we wanted to run the Code past you one more time. Do these ten points still represent the most important issues, in terms of where healthcare professionals could do better in miscarriage care?

Do let us know your thoughts.

Thanks for all the input/comments. We're going to keep this thread stickied for a couple more days to allow everyone a chance to input. So do keep the thoughts coming.

Hello all. Thanks so much for your support and suggestions, and for sharing what must be painful experiences. We'll be reading this through carefully and we'll be back with a plan in the near future. Do keep posting if you have any further thoughts in the meantime.

Hello,

Just to keep you all up to date: thanks so much for all the suggestions on here. We're going to look into the possibility of feeding into the current NICE review of its miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy guidelines; we're also going to try to get a grip of how the shift to GP consortia will affect this issue, and see whether there's anything we can do there. We're also looking at this thread to see whether anything needs to be added to our code (such as pain management).

Thanks,

MNHQ x
