The findings suggest some OB-GYN residents are receiving less training in abortion care, which could leave them unprepared for emergency situations. They’re based on conversations with leaders and educators from 20 OB-GYN residency programs conducted from February to June. The report also highlights how little education some OB-GYN residents are receiving in how to provide an abortion. In the past, residency programs often partnered with abortion clinics to provide that training, but in states with abortion bans, those clinics have shut down. Some patients, doctors and advocates have begun to seek that clarity in court.
