Summary

This chapter is based mainly on Pregnancy Loss and the Death of a Baby: Guidelines for Professionals. Women want to be cared for by skilled staff who show empathy and support for them and their partner, and who give them privacy and time. Several publications are available that provide guidance and set standards for the care of women and families experiencing pregnancy loss. Clear pathways between secondary care and the primary care team are essential to ensure that bereaved parents receive good care at all times. Staffing levels should ensure that parents receive continuity of carers. Carers must have training to enable them to support grieving parents, and must themselves be well supported. The bereavement service as a whole should be audited regularly to ensure that it provides comprehensive, culturally sensitive management and support for families who have experienced an early or mid-pregnancy loss, stillbirth or neonatal death.
