Postabortion care (PAC) reduces maternal mortality and morbidity and addresses unmet need for family planning, a root cause of induced abortion.
Postabortion care is a package of services for women having complications from a miscarriage, incomplete abortion or an induced abortion. USAID's PAC model has three components:
- Emergency treatment of complications
- Family planning counseling and services
- Community empowerment through community awareness and mobilization
This course provides an overview of postabortion care including its definition, objectives, justification, programming best practices, indicators for monitoring and evaluation and strong research evidence for postabortion care.
