Abstract

To demonstrate that perinatal bereavement immersion for emergency department nurses increases knowledge and confidence in providing bereavement care to women who miscarry. The quality improvement design employed the Resolve Through Sharing® Perinatal Death Bereavement Training model. The nurses' perception of their knowledge and confidence was explored using the Resolve Through Sharing® Perinatal Death Bereavement Training Pre-Course and Post-Course Participant Survey.
