Miscarriage Care and Facilities in Scotland: Scoping Report NHS Lanarkshire
This report details the findings of a scoping exercise to better understand miscarriage care in Scotland within this Health Board. The individual Health Board reports and the national report seek to aid policy makers and Health Boards in making decisions about improvements to Miscarriage Care
Referrals and assessment following a loss
All sites were asked if they provide or can access referrals and assessments for support services following a loss.
As all women experiencing miscarriage are referred to University Hospital Wishaw, the majority of referrals and assessments are carried out at this site, including all NHS referrals. University Hospital Wishaw does not currently provide assessments of women for risk of psychological distress following a miscarriage nor referrals to third party services for mental health support following a loss. However they did report that when creating individualised care plans psychological distress is noted for onward referral if appropriate (Table 17).
