Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Report of the Review of the Operation of the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018: Discussion

Ms Marie O'Shea:

I do not have any evidence-based insight but I am hearing recommendations that it should be included in the undergraduate curriculum. The professional bodies should be rolling out training. The ICGP has rolled out training for its members who wish to take it up. The Institute of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists is also rolling out training and has rolled out values clarification training with the HSE. An online facility has also been developed in the HSE, which is on HSE land, that is providing training to people on the ground. However, that all depends on people's willingness to engage in it.
