Over the past 20 years, we have seen a steadily growing prevalence of pregnancies affected by substance use disorders while the screening, assessment, and evidence-based treatment of pregnant people affected by use disorders has not been a topic routinely taught in our health care training across our disciplines. Perinatal Substance Use Disorders 101 is a 90 minute webinar created to expand the basic knowledge of those who interface with families affected by perinatal substance use disorder and provide tools to help deliver best care. The target audience is the interdisciplinary team with a focus on inpatient and outpatient nurses, social workers, counselors, and medical providers. This training provides an introduction to 4 key topics that affect perinatal substance use disorders:

1. The chronic disease model of substance use disorders
2. Recommendations for best practice for screening and treatment of perinatal substance use disorders
3. Delivery of care for mother and neonate affected by maternal substance use disorders
4. Transitions of care that occur leading up to and after delivery

Approximate time to complete the course: 90 Minutes
Learner content includes: PowerPoint and Posttest
Participants will have 45 days from the date of their registration to complete this course. After that date, course materials will no longer be accessible.
