Health Education England elearning for healthcare (HEE elfh) has worked with the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (formerly Public Health England) to develop an interactive townscape on contraception and preconception care within the All Our Health elearning programme.
The townscape provides advice and guidance for health and care professionals to help women, young people and families with different aspects of their pregnancy planning and prevention.
It takes a place-based approach to consider what action can be taken on this public health issue and features an animated town where learners can click on various buildings, such as the GP surgery and school, to access support on topics such as contraception, sexually transmitted infections, fertility and pregnancy.
The townscape also signposts the learner to other sources of support such as the Family Nurse Partnership and sexual health charities.
It complements 4 existing townscapes on breastfeeding, smoking in pregnancy and childhood obesity and child oral health plus 26 bite sized elearning sessions which cover a range of public health topics including early adolescence, immunisation and physical activity.
For more information and to access the resource, please visit the townscape. To access the other sessions and townscapes, please visit the All Our Health programme page.
