DWIHN Enhances Services to Help Treat Postpartum Depression

Agency Launches Program during Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month

The Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) knows that one of the greatest joys in life is bringing a child into this world, but it can also be a very scary time too. Mothers manage a myriad of health concerns by bringing a healthy baby into the world, which can be overwhelming. That’s why DWIHN is working to help support moms by partnering with the Southeastern Michigan Perinatal Quality Improvement Coalition (SEMPQIC).

The initiative, funded by SEMPQIC, trains clinicians within the DWIHN network to help them identify mothers who may be struggling with Postpartum Depression (PPD). The training includes a new and enhanced screening process to catch early signs and symptoms of PPD. 

“With this new initiative, DWIHN is expanding access to care to support families dealing with PPD,” said Eric Doeh, President and CEO. “We know mothers are impacted emotionally, physically, and mentally during this time and detecting the signs early is one more way to protect mom and baby.”

Every year, nearly 800,000 mothers struggle with PPD, including 16% of mothers in Michigan, according to the 2023 Health of Women and Children Report. Symptoms include ongoing feelings of anxiety, irritability, and even guilt. Some physical issues mothers may experience include changes in appetite, weight, or sleep patterns.

This initiative gives DWIHN the opportunity to raise awareness of PPD, foster conversations that are often avoided, and offer solutions. The new approach is designed to detect PPD earlier and provide specialized care.  Programming also will provide critical tools to fathers and other individuals in the mother’s circle of support. 

 

The Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) is the largest Community Mental Health system offering integrated health care in Michigan. Through programs and services that utilize promising best practices, the agency promotes a community that is supportive and embraces people with mental illness, intellectual and developmental disabilities and substance use disorder. DWIHN offers help with Infant Mental Health, Supportive Housing, and Recovery to support self-determination and improve the health, safety and quality of life for nearly 123,000 people and their families. For more information, download the myDWIHN mobile app, www.dwihn.org or contact their 24/7 Access Helpline, 800-241-4949.

DWIHN mejora los servicios para ayudar a tratar la depresión posparto

La agencia lanza un programa en el mes de la Salud Mental Materna.

Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network (DWIHN) reconoce que una de las mayores alegrías de la vida es traer a un niño al mundo, aunque pueda ser también un suceso muy aterrador. Las madres abordan una infinidad de problemas de salud al darle la vida a un bebé sano, pudiendo resultar abrumador. Es por eso que DWIHN está trabajando por las mamás, asociándose con la Coalición para la Mejora de la Calidad Perinatal del Sureste de Michigan (SEMPQIC por sus siglas en inglés).

La iniciativa, financiada por SEMPQIC, capacita a médicos dentro de la red DWIHN, ayudándolos a identificar a madres que puedan estar luchando contra la depresión posparto (DPP). La capacitación incluye un nuevo proceso de detección para el descubrimiento de signos y síntomas tempranos de DPP.

“Con esta nueva iniciativa, DWIHN está ampliando el acceso a la atención para apoyar a las familias que padecen DPP”, comentó Eric Doeh, presidente y director ejecutivo. “Sabemos que las madres se ven afectadas emocional, física y mentalmente durante este proceso y detectar los signos iniciales es una forma más de proteger a la madre y al bebé”.

Cada año, casi 800.000 madres luchan contra la depresión posparto, incluido el 16 % de las madres en Michigan, según el Informe de salud de mujeres y niños de 2023. Los síntomas incluyen sentimientos continuos de ansiedad, irritabilidad e incluso culpa. Algunos problemas físicos que las madres pueden experimentar incluyen cambios de apetito, peso o patrones de sueño.

Esta iniciativa le brinda a DWIHN la oportunidad de crear conciencia sobre la DPP, fomentar conversaciones que a menudo son evitadas y ofrecer soluciones. El nuevo enfoque está diseñado para detectar con antelación la depresión posparto y brindar atención especializada. El programa, también les  proporciona herramientas críticas a los padres y otras personas de la red de apoyo de la madre.

 

La Red de Salud Integrada de Detroit Wayne (DWIHN) es el sistema comunitario de salud mental más grande que ofrece atención médica integrada en Michigan. A través de programas y servicios que utilizan mejores prácticas prometedoras, la agencia promueve una comunidad que brinda apoyo y acoge a personas con enfermedades mentales, discapacidades intelectuales y del desarrollo y trastornos por uso de sustancias. DWIHN ofrece ayuda de salud mental infantil, vivienda de apoyo y recuperación para apoyar la autodeterminación y mejorar la salud, la seguridad y la calidad de vida de casi 123,000 personas y sus familias. Para obtener más información, descargue la aplicación móvil myDWIHN, www.dwihn.org o comuníquese a la línea de ayuda disponible las 24 horas, los 7 días de la semana, 800-241-4949.
