A new system of care for women at risk of miscarriages was announced by Health Minister Reba Meagher. The system will immediately send these women that are at risk to a maternity unit. The reason for this change is not only for the clinical care but for the emotional needs of the mother. The Deputy director-general Richard Matthews believes that the best treatment for those women is "supportive human contact, explaination, pain relief, and most importantly privacy." The changes should not cost extra to implepement.
Miscarriages are terribly upsetting situation to be in especially for the family. It is always harder on the mother of course. In my opinion I think that these new implements will be helpful to the mothers. It will allow time to heal. Being in the presence of the supportive nurses and having the family there with them will give them time to be alone with them and relieve the emotional heartache of losing a child.
