Providers need to address women's concerns about using modern contraceptives, educate their clients about the best ways to prevent unwanted pregnancies, and provide non-judgemental services. In addition, comprehensive counselling services that include contraceptive counselling should be made available to women before, during, and after abortion care. Finally, providers should strive to be facilitators of, not barriers to, safe abortion care.
