Patients can now self-refer to the Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust.
The EPAU is for women who are encountering problems such as bleeding or abdominal pain in the first 16 weeks of pregnancy.
In order to self-refer, women will need to fill in the EPAU referral form, which can be found on the Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust website at www.lewishamandgreenwich.nhs.uk/epau-self-referral.
Once the self-referral form is received by the EPAU, a telephone triage review will be conducted by one of the early pregnancy nurses.
