NEST Pathway: Navigating Evidence-Based Support & Treatment
NEST is a cohort-based CME training designed for Virginia prescribers who care for pregnant and postpartum patients. VMAP for Moms+ recommends completing this course before participating in PEACE. However, if you have already completed PEACE, this course still serves as a valuable complement to that curriculum and offers additional learning opportunities.
All of these curriculum topics are aligned with preparation for the PMH-C credential, a professional credential awarded by Postpartum Support International (PSI). After attending all eight modules, you can earn up to 16 CME/MOC 2 for only $100.
What You’ll Learn with NEST
- Identify, diagnose, and treat perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs).
- Navigate psychopharmacology during pregnancy, postpartum, and lactation.
- Develop informed treatment plans and systems-based interventions.
- Identify social supports, community resources, and peer support programs.
