What is Promoting First Relationships in Pediatrics?

• A 1-day workshop for nurses and other providers in a hospital setting who provide care for women and newborns affected by Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). In this workshop, you will learn how to better nurture and support the parent-child relationship during daily patient encounters. The program combines the new science of early brain development with established attachment-based practices to give medical providers the knowledge, skills, and confidence to support women and newborns affected by OUD.

• Learn to see and better understand the attachment behaviors that are already occurring within your patient through a combination of lecture, videos, and case studies
• Learn evidence based skills that can help both you and your patients feel an increased sense of competency, satisfaction, and efficacy
• Quickly and easily apply what you have learned with the assistance of the accompanying manual and patient handouts
• Experience a renewed sense of meaning and joy in your work when using the relationship based framework and skills you will learn in this workshop
