A progressive and necessary development that allows remote consultation in abortion care. It will be much appreciated by patients who seek and need this service at this most difficult time. #carecantwait #wewillprovide #COVID19ireland @freesafelegal @HSELive @DocsforChoice
Huge thanks to @CMOIreland @roinnslainte and @SimonHarrisTD for their collaboration. We can now offer remote consultation for abortion care during the COVID 19 emergency. This will make a huge difference to women and providers @Startdoctors @ICGPnews @NWIHP
GPs, clinics and hospital obgyn continuing to provide an abortion service. Made easier for patients by @SimonHarrisTD emergency measures. Allowing those self isolating and cocooning due to illness to access timely, expert medical help. #abortionishealthcare #thenorthisnext
Adaptability in the time of #COVID19ireland. Privilege as President of ICGP to open Zoom meeting today of training for new GP abortion providers. Committed teachers, committed providers. Ensuring community service will continue at a time when patients face particular stressors.
#covid19ire GPs are getting reports of women delaying making contact for abortion provision as not sure if the service is continuing in the community. IT IS! Please encourage patients to phone ASAP. RETWEET please. #wewillprovide #carecantwait @hselive @ICGPnews @Startdoctors
A very welcome development. It will ensure women continue to receive a community based abortion service during this pandemic. Even if patient #COVID19 +ve or their GP is remote working due to self isolation. Thankyou @SimonHarrisTD @Startdoctors #wewillprovide @freesafelegal
Health Minister Simon Harris has told Dáil that women looking to access abortion services will be able to consult remotely with their GPs. Some TDs were seeking to remove the three-day waiting period for women to access medication to terminate pregnancy.
Seems like there's never been a better time for all governments everywhere to allow medical abortion pills consultations to happen over the phone and tablets sent by post. #AbortionWithoutBorders marieclaire.co.uk/news/ireland-i…
"We have to be radical in our demands for full abortion access" - @DrMarkMurphy #LetsTalkAboutSex
.@DrMarkMurphy now speaks about abortion, abortion access, the foundation of @Doctors4Choice and the role, both good and bad, of doctors role in the fight for abortion access
Had to explain to a county council today why living in a car is not medically advised for a pregnant woman. Med school doesn’t prepare you for this c...p. #socialexclusion #homelessness
The bpas Finsbury Park clinic this morning. No problems with anti-abortion groups before and now there are 45 protesters outside. This is a direct result of @ukhomeoffice’s refusal to take action - giving the impression that harassing women outside clinics is acceptable. #BackOff
