  BCAPOP VIRTUAL PRE-CONFERENCE
  October 5, 2020 | 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM
  

  Perinatal Support Skills Workshop
  presented by: Sheila Duffy & Anna Chambers of Pacific Post Partum Support Society

  There is a marked increase of perinatal mood disorders, especially anxiety, since March 2020. This is not surprising as we know many new families have had a decrease of support and an increase in insolation during the Covid-19 reality. During this workshop, we will explore of the issues arising due to the pandemic and how care providers can help support struggling pregnant and post partum participants during this difficult time.

  The goal of this session is to:
  Provide care providers with an understanding of perinatal depression (PND) so they can support and refer pregnant and post partum individuals for help.

  By completion of the session, participants will be able to:
  

  • Define PND, its prevalence, signs & symptoms, and risk factors.
  • Understand the societal context of motherhood as it relates to PND and the implications of not getting help.
  • Describe the role of the care providers in supporting pregnant and early parenting individuals with PND.

  **

  Who should attend? Care workers who support pregnant individuals.
