Advanced Clinical Skills for Management of Breastfeeding, Cry-fuss, Sleep and Mood Problems: Masterclasses in Neuroprotective Developmental Care
('The Possums Programs').
Breastfeeding difficulties and unsettled infant behaviour are modifiable risk factors for postnatal depression, yet parents report being overwhelmed by conflicting advice; babies are often treated with pharmaceutical and surgical interventions which don’t improve outcomes; and many breastfeeding problems remain unidentified and unmanaged though women seek the help of multiple providers. Join our 2023 online modularised masterclasses for clinical upskilling! Our Introductory workshops offer you the foundational evidence-base; now, in response to demand from our participants, we are offering you opportunity to learn and practice the specific NDC clinical skillsets. We'd love to have you join us!
Benefits of our Masterclasses:
- Join in discussions, ask questions
- Networking and collegiality
- Practice new skills with educator support
- CPD hours/points (please note hours/points with the colleges are yet to be confirmed for 2023-25 triennium)
- Discounted opportunity to join NDC Accreditation Pathway and access portal resources
For those unable to join our 2023 Live Online Modularised Masterclasses, our Pre-recorded Masterclasses are also now available to view whenever you wish, once you join the NDC accreditation pathway. Viewing them online whenever you wish costs $500 AUD. Our Masterclasses online include speakers from all Masterclasses to date. Click here to see the content.
