Midwives and Cervical Screening During Pregnancy

The NSW Cervical Screening Program aims to increase participation in cervical screening for all women across NSW, focusing on women who are under-screened. For some women, who do not usually engage with the health system, pregnancy may be the first or only opportunity for them to be offered and/or to have cervical screening. The National Cervical Screening Program guidelines* say that it is safe to offer cervical screening (including self-collection) to pregnant women who are due or overdue for screening.  

To help us understand if you provide cervical screening for pregnant women, or if not what some of the barriers to offering screening are for you, please take 5 minutes to answer the following questions.
