Sands Updates Pregnancy Loss Publication

The charity Sands, which provides support for bereaved parents and their families, has updated its flagship publication, 'Pregnancy Loss and the Death of A Baby: Guidelines for Professionals'.

This fourth edition, which officially launched last week, is an update of the previous edition published in 2007. It contains information for professionals regarding losses at any stage of pregnancy, including early and late miscarriage and termination for fetal anomaly. It also addresses stillbirth and care for very ill babies and those who are likely to die shortly after birth.

The Guidelines provide a description of what good care should be, but also offer practical guidance for professionals on how to meet the needs of parents in different situations.

Dr Clea Harmer, Chief Executive of Sands, said: "We've made every effort to ensure that this is the most comprehensive and effective set of Guidelines possible and hope our plans to improve accessibility will result in increased engagement and more healthcare professionals feeling confident in the bereavement care they are able to provide for parents when a baby dies."

The Guidelines is available to purchase via Sands' shop in hardcopy, as well as electronically in PDF and EPUB formats.
