Stitch Along
"Stitch Along" is a 3 hour interactive session to enable any student or Midwife to cover the basics of perineal repair. It explores basic anatomy and physiology, assessment of perineal trauma, communication and how to suture first and second degree tears and episiotomies.
The session is suitable for current student and qualified staff and costs £10. You can book your place below and we run sessions monthly.
Please note that these sessions require a minimum of 10 attendees to go ahead.
You will also need to purchase a suture kit and you may wish to buy a vagina simulator in addition, however this isn't necessary.
