Background: Nearly all stillbirths in Canada occur in hospitals--a setting that can either support or exacerbate what is often a traumatic experience. People with lived experience of stillbirth face psychological challenges, barriers to seeking support, and stigma; therefore, patient engagement is critical to optimizing stillbirth care. Methods: We conducted a quality improvement project through a human-centred design approach to understand the hospital stillbirth experience and co-design a vision for improved stillbirth care at BC Women's Hospital and Health Centre. We engaged 30 bereaved parents in two workshops and used design methods to promote refection and gather insights about their experiences. Results: Four key themes emerged via reflexive thematic analysis, which highlighted bereaved parents' desire for stillbirth-specific care, care that honors the baby and recognizes the parents, provision of accommodating spaces, and sharing of information with care. Conclusions: The hospital setting, designed primarily for live deliveries, can contribute to the suffering of bereaved parents of stillborn babies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
