We have produced the following guidelines for professionals on responding when a baby dies:

• Recommendations for a joint agency protocol for the management of sudden unexpected deaths in infancy (pdf)
• Sudden and unexpected deaths in infancy: guidelines for accident and emergency workers (pdf)
• Sudden and unexpected deaths in infancy: guidelines for paediatricians (pdf)
• Sudden and unexpected deaths in infancy: a suggested approach for police and coroners (pdf)
• Guidelines for health visitors and midwives (pdf)
• Guidelines for GPs (pdf)

Please download copies and circulate to your colleagues.  You might like to call the FSID Regional Development Officer for your area to work towards developing a protocol specific to your locality.
