Postnatal Contraception

Postnatal Contraception featured image

Problem

Short interpregnancy intervals are associated with poorer maternal and neonatal outcomes. Access to postnatal contraception is difficult for women and limits their ability to control their reproductive health.

Project aim 

Reduce short interpregnancy intervals, through the provision and implementation of a postnatal contraception service, that is accessible to women whilst inpatient.


Created and implemented a postnatal contraceptive service, following stakeholder funding. Created trust guidelines and SOPS for the service, and adapted as necessary following peer review.

Developed bitesize information on contraception to share with staff and aid discussions with women.

Action learning sets supported development and adaptation to challenges whilst implementing the service during my Chief Nursing Officer Fellowship – Kiera
