Abstract
Following the loss of a baby, women and their families have particular needs. As midwives are the main professional group present at this time, they need to support women through the process. However, it may be relatively rare for midwives to encounter bereavement, and so it is important to ensure that competency is maintained in this area. This has been demonstrated by an increasing demand for additional training from midwives, which led to a bereavement and communication study day within the University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The study day explored midwives' and women's personal experiences and considered the implications for practice.
