Delayed Postpartum Hemorrhage with Nurse and Doula Present

This Drill Kit tests the emergency response to a delayed postpartum hemorrhage in a community birth setting after departure of the primary provider, with care being provided by a nurse (or other clinical birth assistant) and a doula (or other non-clinical birth assistant.) The scenario includes initiating emergency postpartum transfer to a higher level of care for ongoing management of postpartum hemorrhage.

Identify and respond to a delayed postpartum hemorrhage in a manner consistent with the respective scopes of practice of interdisciplinary learners.
Identify opportunities to strengthen preparedness for perinatal emergencies when licensed midwives and physicians are not initially available to direct management.
Review ways to promote person-focused care during emergencies.
Use debriefing skills to promote equity and ensure integration of individual and collective learning.
