Giving a contraceptive injection

Women who have decided to use the contraceptive injection as their method of contraception need to attend for regular repeat injections, at specific intervals
depending on which medication is used (FSRH, 2015). The prescribing clinician will have ensured that the woman meets the UK Medical Eligibility Criteria for
the injection (RCOG, 2015), and she will have already received counselling about the advantages and disadvantages of the method. You must adhere to the
Nursing and Midwifery Council’s Standards for Medicines Management (2010), which in this case includes awareness of the UK Medical Eligibility Criteria for
the contraceptive injection (RCOG, 2015).
