Almond Valley MSP Angela Constance has called on NHS Lothian to take the Miscarriage Association’s Pregnancy Loss Pledge.
By signing the pledge, employers commit to a higher pregnancy loss standard to ensure that employees going through what can be a very difficult or traumatic time get the support and time off they need.
Many parents have highlighted that due to the stigma associated with miscarriage and the lack of support available, they often feel they are unable to grieve adequately.
