'Abortion skills' training for medics prompts concerns for pro-life students
The Christian Institute has raised concerns about the right to conscientious objection after the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) said it would teach and assess "abortion skills".
In its 'Better for Women' document, the RCOG is calling on the General Medical Council (GMC) to "review the Undergraduate medical curriculum to include the importance of abortion care to students". The GMC is the official body that all doctors in the UK must be registered with.
The RCOG added it would "teach abortion skills as a part of its core curriculum and assess those skills through examination"....
