Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what training is delivered to nurses to inform their treatment of pre-eclampsia.

The devolved administrations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales are responsible for the training of staff working in the National Health Service in that country and the content of training curriculum.

In England, all midwives receive training on the care of women with pre-eclampsia as part of the education programme they complete to become a registered midwife. Each nursing school sets its own curriculum. These have to meet the standards set by the Nursing and Midwifery Council.
