NICE Guidelines have had a major impact on pregnancy care but Guideline No 110 on Pregnancy and Complex Social Issues is so wide-ranging and covers such diverse groups of vulnerable patients that its implementation has posed major challenges up and down the country. This complexity and the demands made on services without appropriate resources must result in compromise. The topics covered within this guidance include pregnancy in teenagers and young adults, substance misusers, victims of domestic violence, asylum seekers, refugees and new immigrants. They fall precisely within the remit of the British Society for Psychosomatic Obstetrics, Gynaecology and Andrology (BSPOGA) and for this reason they have established this joint meeting with the RCOG.  Booking Form
