Termination of Pregnancy Service

Description

NHS Leeds Clinical Commissioning Group is inviting interested providers to apply to be part of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of Termination of Pregnancy Services to women across the city of Leeds. Due to the national agenda for developing more integrated health services Wakefield CCG may also become an associate of any resulting contracts. Therefore the Termination of pregnancy Services would also be available to women across the city of Wakefield. All providers are required to provide a full range of services to include face-to-face care, telemedicine, scanning, post-operative management, and both medical and surgical procedures up to and including 23+6 weeks' gestation. The aims of the service are to: • Provide a consistent, effective, comprehensive, accessible, legal and appropriate abortion service – as early as possible and in consideration of personal circumstances. • Provide a choice of abortion methods, clinically appropriate for gestation and clinical circumstances. • Ensure that risk of infection and other complications is minimised. • Ensure that opportunities for contraceptive information and supply and sexual health screening are maximised • Ensure all people, their partners and their families have access to high quality information, advice and care (as defined by national standards together with feedback from people and families).
