Integrating Perinatal Healthcare Study

Are you a perinatal healthcare provider or birth worker? Are you pregnant or postpartum? Participate in this study to share your experiences!

ABOUT THE STUDY
This study is investigating how perinatal healthcare clinicians, birth workers, and pregnant or postpartum people navigate the psychosocial aspects of pregnancy and postpartum (e.g. anxiety, family stressors, financial strain). We seek the experiences of healthcare clinicians, birth workers, and people in the perinatal period to understand how behavioral health issues are addressed in perinatal healthcare environments and how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted perinatal healthcare.  

Participation in this study is voluntary. We invite perinatal healthcare clinicians (e.g. community midwives, CNMs, physicians, nurses, behavioral health professionals) and birth workers (e.g. doulas, community health workers) to participate in 1 interview lasting approximately 60 minutes, and we invite pregnant and postpartum people to participate in up to 3 interviews, each lasting approximately 60 minutes. Due to COVID-19, interviews will be conducted by video or telephone and scheduled at your convenience. Participants will receive a $30 gift card at the completion of each interview as a thank you for your time.

ELIGIBILITY
Eligible participants are at least 18 years old, reside in Washington, Oregon, or California, are pregnant or postpartum, a birth worker, a perinatal healthcare clinician, or a mental health provider focusing their work on the perinatal period.

ENSURING CONFIDENTIALITY & ANONYMITY
Any identifying information or details collected during interviews will be anonymized or otherwise altered to keep the identity of individuals confidential. The identities of any participants will not be revealed in presentations or publications that result from this research. 

This study has been reviewed and approved by UCSF Institutional Review Board (#18-25292).
