Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution

Health Care Issues - Crisis Pregnancy Management: Ms Janice Donlon, HSE

1:30 pm

Ms Janice Donlon:

Yes. I understand that through those guidelines, and bereavement care guidelines, the life-limiting condition terminology is used. In practice, the crisis pregnancy counselling services have told us that the language used in a counselling session is the language that the woman and her partner is comfortable with. It is good counselling practice to do so.
