Idaho Postpartum Depression Hospital-Based Support Groups
A statewide survey of hospital-based postpartum depression support groups was completed by the Boise State University's College of Education, ECE/ECSE Blended Certificate program. Of 35 birthing hospitals in Idaho, the following have existing programs, or they are developing* postpartum depression support groups:
Please note that all birthing hospitals use screening tools, provide follow-up phone calls, and refer a woman to her physician if there is a concern. So, if a woman's local hospital is not listed, she still should contact her physician, as other local or nearby qualified resources may be available.
Questions regarding this survey can be directed to Carrie L. Mori, Assistant Professor, Boise State University (cmori@boisestate.edu) or Lisa Johnson, Boise State University ECE/ECSE Student (lisaljj@aol.com).
