When the Bough Breaks: Postpartum Mood and Anxiety Disorders

Postpartum mood and anxiety disorders affect thousands of families each year—and nurses are often the first to notice when something isn’t right. In this on-demand webinar, Dr. Cheryl Beck joins AWHONN to explore how depression, anxiety, and trauma after childbirth contribute to maternal mortality and what nurses can do to intervene early.

During Perinatal Nurses Week, access this educational resource free of charge as our way of celebrating your commitment to women’s health and compassionate care.
