METRIC

The ACQTool is the first ever global standard for measuring the quality of abortion services in low- and middle-income countries. It is a short set of indicators developed by an international panel of experts, through extensive testing, to provide an accurate assessment of the quality of abortion care an individual has received during and after their abortion experience. Critically, the ACQTool looks beyond the safety of the immediate procedure, assessing how well the client’s actual needs and values for their abortion care have been met, across seven primary domains. 

The ACQTool is free to use and available in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese.
