SUMMARY:Be prepared with Safer Baby Bundle eLearning
DESCRIPTION:On Monday 1 February\, Red Nose Australia\, with the support of partners Stillbirth Foundation Australia and Stillbirth CRE\, launched a new national public awareness campaign designed to raise awareness about stillbirth and help reduce the stigma associated with stillbirth. As this campaing launches\, we expect more pregnant women will have questions about stillbirth prevention for maternity healthcare professionals. In preparation\, we’re encouraging all maternity healthcare professionals across Australia to ensure their knowledge is up-to-date by completing the free online Safer Baby Bundle eLearning modules.The Safer Baby Bundle provides a package of educational materials based on the latest evidence in stillbirth prevention\, including clinical care pathways. Each course in the eLearning takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and provides essential training for obstetricians\, midwives\, nurses\, general practitioners and antenatal staff. The eLearning modules are complemented by a wide range of resources for both professionals and pregnant women to support the identification of risk factors and improve the management and care of women for safer pregnancies. \nFind out more at the Stillbirth Centre of Research Excellence website.
