International Questions Question Answer How is PROMPT training implemented internationally? b b b b b b b b b b b b PROMPT training has already been implemented in many countries around the world, in a variety of settings. PROMPT has the potential to benefit many more mothers and babies on a global scale and PMF are keen to support further international training opportunities. Background: Until recently, most international PROMPT training has been implemented by individual maternity teams who have attended a T3 day run by PMF faculty either in London, or their own country. This package has allowed teams to run training in their own unit. From 2023 we will be launching our NEW PROMPT Global package. The PROMPT Global package contains training resources incorporating the latest evidence and UK National guidance including an emphasis on multi-professional team working, human factors, civility and other recommendations in line with the Ockenden and Kirkup reports. The package includes: For more information on this new package, please visit this page. As experience in the implementation of PROMPT training grows, some teams wish to consider acting as trainers themselves in order to roll out PROMPT training to other units in their region. PMF are very keen to support these ventures in order to increase dissemination of PROMPT training, however, we are equally committed to ensuring that quality of training is maintained and the impact of PROMPT is maximised.

Local dissemination of PROMPT training requires commitment to provide high-quality, cost-effective training for other units on a large scale. Groups wishing to take on this challenge should be able to demonstrate the necessary experience, financial and logistical backing that is required to support the venture. Most teams that have previously obtained licenses for local PROMPT training have been affiliated with national professional bodies (e.g. RCOG, RANZCOG) or respected academic institutions. This type of local endorsement of PROMPT undoubtedly improves the reach of training. What additional training materials are required for PROMPT in international settings? b b b b b When PROMPT training is distributed on a regional/national scale the comprehensive training package materials and resources will require localisation to reflect national guidelines, e.g. drug names and doses, appropriate to the area. This may also include translation of materials into other languages. This process requires considerable time and resource and is usually undertaken by the local collaborators, although a legal agreement must be drawn up between all parties including PMF and our publishers, Cambridge University Press.
