The need for improved emotional support: an online survey of Australian women’s access to healthcare services and support at the time of miscarriage.

This study – undertaken with The Pink Elephants Support Network – surveyed 399 women about their healthcare experiences at the time of miscarriage. More than half were not offered any information about miscarriage or support services or any referral for emotional support. Almost all women reported they would have liked to be asked how they were coping emotionally, to receive referral for counselling and to receive leaflets for support organisations.
