NHS Tayside: implementing the Scottish antenatal parent education pack.

In 2011, the Scottish antenatal parent education pack was launched. The pack consisted of a national core syllabus, a parent education resources manual and accompanying toolkit and a training course. This article looks at how NHS Tayside has taken the core syllabus and resource manual as guidance and, using many of the teaching aids contained in the toolkit, has developed workbooks for key topics. This will support our aim to provide a quality parent education programme for women and their families across Tayside.
