info

– A non-judgmental, safe venue to obtain relevant knowledge

Pregnets Evaluation

• Recommendations – Discussion board is good but increasing opportunities for

peer support would be useful – Information is good but expected literacy level is high – More information would be helpful – Graphics lack cultural diversity – Need for adaptability on Smartphones – Website colours seem ‘medical’ – Pregnets could help raise awareness – Internet might not be the best way to reach this population
