This special Q/A will be open to the public and to Pelvic Health Network members who have specific questions on starting a new service line, business, or hospital-based program that provides acute care, virtual, and home-health services during: pregnancy (including high-risk conditions) and within 0-6 days following any birth experience and pelvic surgery (e.g. hysterectomy, high-degree perineal tear, sterilization, hemorrhage management, and more). We will discuss the upcoming Enhanced Recovery After Delivery training that prepares licensed health providers and birth professionals to expedite maternal health support faster than the current standard of care. This training will be offered via livestream and in-person, providing breakfast, lunch, and a beautiful hike with iconic views of the Pikes Peak region. The training will be professionally recorded for future, self-paced participants while our livestream and in-person participants will master the hands-on techniques that can be started in the hospital and home. Every trainee will have access to a 1:1 meeting with an ERAD instructor that they can request within the 12 months from the start of their training: live or self-paced. This Q/A will answer your questions on whether or not you should continue observing perinatal health practice across all settings OR if you are ready to advance your career and join us at our beautiful headquarters in Colorado Springs on July 19-20, 2025. After this training, you can choose to pursue the Perinatal Health Specialist Certification that is 100% unique to this specialized area of practice. We can't wait to meet you, learn about your mission, and help you succeed! This Q/A will be recorded for members of Pelvic Health Network where memberships directly support program and professional development to advance early interventions in acute care, home health, virtual practice, and community-based support for maternal health, women's health, and pelvic health care.
