Referrals and assessment following a loss
All sites in Scotland were asked if they provide or can access referrals and assessment for support services following a loss.
In NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde all of the services listed below are provided on site at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital, Vale of Leven District General Hospital and Princess Royal Maternity Hospital. Inverclyde Royal Hospital responded that they can access these services within the local health board area while Royal Alexandra Hospital reported that none of these services are currently provided and that there are no plans to implement them as they stated that there is currently no NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde pathway in place for this (Table 17).
