National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry - Intensive Workshop
There is a need to increase knowledge regarding diagnosis and treatment of women’s mental health symptoms and diseases across the lifespan. Few residency, nursing, or advanced training programs offer any training on the specific mental health needs of women across the reproductive lifespan. Currently no standardized advanced (ACGME)training exists for advanced-practice nurses, general psychiatrists, obstetrician-gynecologists, pediatricians, and family medicine providers. Educational opportunities for practitioners also remain limited and of varying quality. This course will bring together some of the leading NCRP educators for an intensive three-day training in reproductive psychiatry to help fill this knowledge gap.
The National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry (NCRP) was created in 2013 following research completed by the National Task Force on Women’s Reproductive Mental Health showing a large discrepancy between the need for women’s mental health providers and lack of adequate educational training in reproductive mental health to providers. The NCRP provides an in-depth educational training in reproductive psychiatry and represents a major step forward to address the gap between the clinical need in women’s reproductive mental health and education for trainees and practitioners. The NCRP is freely available online and is designed to be used as an interactive educational platform. While some psychiatric residency programs have started to use the materials to teach their residents, many still do not and the materials have not yet been accessible to nurse practitioners. Our course will therefore provide an opportunity to learn this
specialized material to providers who did not receive this specialized training or desire more in-depth education in women’s mental health.
