Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
LARC education and training
Clinicians and contraceptive educators practicing in clinics assigned to this arm receive a special half-day Continuing Medical Education (CME/CEU) accredited LARC education and training session.
LARC education and training
A CME/CEU accredited Grand Rounds education and training session will be given to clinicians and contraceptive educators practicing in clinics assigned to the intervention arm. Clinicians will have hands-on training as well. The half-day session emphasizes evidence-based contraceptive counseling and provision.
Standard practice- control
Clinicians and contraceptive educators practicing in clinics assigned to this arm do not receive special LARC training and education session. Standard practice will be followed at clinics assigned to the control arm.
No interventions assigned to this group
