ForwardJGR22-622 AAP TECaN National Advocacy Campaign: 'How to Advocate for Mental Health Resources within your NICU' (100522)
This 10-Part virtual/on-demand webinar series will bring together experts from across the nation to discuss topics related to NICU family mental health and wellness. Parental mental health needs are extremely prevalent in the NICU. Despite the high needs and impact on child and family outcomes, most NICUs do not currently have a standard of care to address familial mental health. Our purpose through the National AAP TECaN Carousel Care Campaign is to educate NICU providers across all scopes of practice on how to identify and address family wellness needs. This session will focus on the implementation of family and caregiver mental health programs within the NICU as a new standard of care. A panel of experts will share their experiences in creating and working within such programs by creating the necessary structural framework for NICU family mental health initiatives, advocating for institutional support, and fostering a culture that embraces their importance. Strategies for creating family mental health programs in both resource-limited and resource-rich NICUs will be explored.
Target Audience
This activity is appropriate for Providers, Advanced Practitioners, Nurses that specialize in Critical Care Medicine, Obstetrics/Gynecology, Palliative Care, Pediatrics and/or Psychiatry as well as and other Healthcare professionals with an interest in addressing NICU familial mental health and wellness needs.
