Nexplanon Training Support Programme

Access to, and uptake of, Long-Acting Reversible
Contraception (LARC) is a recognised healthcare
priority in order to reduce the incidence and impact
of unintended pregnancies.

The current limited use of LARC suggests that
healthcare professionals would benefit from more
guidance and training so that they can help women
make an informed choice.

Changes to the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive
Health (FSRH) guidance mean
that both nurses and doctors can receive LARC
training to gain the FSRH Letter of Competence
(LoC) in Subdermal Contraceptive Implant
Techniques, either as a stand-alone qualification or
as part of the FSRH Diploma.

As part of the licence for Nexplanon, MSD are
required to provide education, training and support
for healthcare professionals who fit and remove
Nexplanon. MSD have invested in the Nexplanon
Training Support Programme (NTSP), provided free
of charge to NHS customers.

The NTSP is suitable for both nurses and doctors
who wish to advance their clinical skills in
Subdermal Contraceptive Implant Techniques.
