Why This Training Matters
Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) affect up to 20% of birthing people, yet many cases go undetected due to inadequate screening practices. Timely and effective screening can be the difference between suffering in silence and receiving life-changing support. This comprehensive training equips perinatal providers with the essential skills to implement validated screening tools, interpret results with confidence, and create referral pathways that actually work for their clients.
Effective perinatal mental health screening is a critical skill for all providers working with pregnant and postpartum individuals. This interactive 90-minute session provides practical, evidence-based strategies for improving screening practices in any clinical setting. Participants will learn how to navigate the complexities of perinatal mental health screening, from initial client engagement to follow-up care, while considering cultural factors and developing sustainable clinical workflows that enhance client outcomes.
What You'll Learn:
- Implementation of validated screening tools (EPDS, PHQ-9, GAD-7) in various practice settings
- Creating effective clinical workflows for screening
- Strategies for increasing client engagement and honesty in the screening process
- Cultural considerations in perinatal mental health screening
