This Reducing Avoidable Term Admissions course together with other courses form a high-quality e-learning for midwives. These modules and programmes have been developed by the UK’s medical royal colleges, Health Education England e-Learning for Healthcare, and other professional bodies.



Term admissions to neonatal units can result from a range of issues, such as perinatal adaptation, respiratory distress symptoms and sepsis.



This module looks at the preventative approaches that may, in certain instances, reduce the need for admittance to neonatal units and the subsequent separation of mother and baby.



This module is suitable for:

• Paediatricians and trainees


• Midwives


• Midwifery students


• Neonatal nurses/advanced neonatal nurse practitioners


• Healthcare support workers/nursery nurses/midwifery support nurses
