Re: How does your facility deal with fetal demise?
In my country, across all major public hospitals, and probably most private ones, we have a lot of focus on cultural sensitivity and allowing individuals to express their faith/culture as they see fit.
Parents are offered the remains of the foetus, and its not just with natural demise, its a requirement that a mother is offered the remains if she is having a TOP.
We have chaplains of most faiths, can get a spiritual leader of an uncommon faith, we also have Maori cultural advisors who assist patients who identify with this ethnicity. There's also the offer of counselling of various degrees, singular or group et cetera.
