Answer

Miscarriage can have a devastating impact on women and their families, and we are determined that they receive the support they need. As part of the renewed Women’s Health Strategy, we have committed to closely reviewing the findings presented in the Tommy’s graded model of care study, as part of our broader work on miscarriage care.

Bereaved parents receiving care at the Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust are offered support seven days a week from bereavement midwives, and all bereaved parents are signposted to national and local support groups and counselling. Beacon Maternal Mental Health Service provides support for those experiencing loss and complicated grief around pregnancy loss.
