Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of a phone based post-abortion intervention on the experience of post-abortion care.

Detailed description

This study evaluates whether personalized text messages and phone calls to post abortion women can improve post abortion person-centered care, perceived social support, post-abortion family planning, and reduce perceptions of social stigma and stress. Women were randomized to one of three study arms: personalized communication with a peer counselor or nurse who received person-centered care (PCC) training, or a control arm where participants received the standard of care.
