My latest blog post for Fertility Fest 2019 is the first in a 3-part series about Fertility Fest’s 3 big aims
The first pillar of our social mission is a subject that’s very very close to all of our hearts - improving emotional support for patients.
There’s been tremendous progress, and now the HFEA Code of Practice has a dedicated section specifically for patient support: specifying clinics’ responsibilities to develop a patient support policy that codifies how the clinic will ensure all staff provide “appropriate psychosocial support” before, during and after treatment.
The code of practice says that “patient support should be patient-centred” - but what does patient-centred actually mean?
Our Mission: Patient Support
We want to develop a patient centred manifesto for what we believe clinics should be offering to fulfil this requirement - please do check out the blog post, and let us know what you think should be added to the list.
