Abstract
This Working Paper presents key findings from an empirical study of providers of Early Medical Abortion in Ireland under the Health (Termination of Pregnancy) Act 2018.
Among the findings presented are:
Those providing abortion care are doing so based on a belief that it is the ‘right’ thing to do and because it aligns with their professional identity and their understanding of the duty to provide appropriate care to patients
The legally mandated 3-day wait is problematic for most providers for both principled and practical reasons.
