The Safer Baby Bundle is a national initiative with five evidence-based elements to address key areas where improved practice can reduce the number of stillborn babies in Australia.
The Stillbirth CRE has led the development of the Safer Baby Bundle evidence- based eLearning resources. The Stillbirth CRE is committed to designing and delivering evidence-based eLearning materials, as well as face to face workshops, to support clinicians across Australia in reducing preventable stillbirth. We have partnered with the leading professional colleges and research institutions across Australia to develop these learning resources. And address the priority evidence practice gaps in stillbirth prevention for implementation across maternity services.
The Safer Baby Bundle eLearning modules are free to access and provide access to include downloadable resources to share with patients. Clinicians who successfully complete the Safer Baby Bundle eLearning modules can be recognised for their training with accredited CPD points.
