Mississippi Delta Community Care Home Visits Program for Postpartum Mothers
This study is looking at a program called the PEN-3 Intervention Model, which involves home visits, to help mothers in the Mississippi Delta. The goal is to improve maternal health and reduce issues like postpartum mood disturbance. Researchers want to see if this program can lower the number of emergency room (ED) visits for new mothers in the first six weeks after giving birth. You might be able to join if you are a woman between 18 and 45 years old, have been identified with a high-risk pregnancy, are a postpartum mother, and live in one of five specific counties in Mississippi (Washington, Bolivar, Scott, Humphreys, and Carroll). The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.
