Mon Health’s Progressing Through Postpartum Program Wins Excellence Award

Posted Date: 11/27/2023
The Mon Health Progressing Through Postpartum Program (P3) was recently awarded the West Virginia Rural Health Association (WVRHA) Award for Excellence in Rural Health.

Through Mon Health’s P3 Program, mothers are screened before, during, and after pregnancy for any indication of anxiety, depression, or mood disorder. This allows for early detection and management of symptoms, giving the P3 team an opportunity to connect with mothers early on and provide continuous support throughout their pregnancy and postpartum journey.

“At Mon Health P3, we are creating the gold standard of postpartum healthcare,” said Jennifer Bender, Lead Nurse Navigator for the P3 Program. “All West Virginia families deserve the type of proactive outreach we offer. We made wonderful connections at the WVRHA conference and hope to help other organizations in our great state initiate outreach to all families. We all need support.”

The WVRHA Excellence in Rural Health Award was given to the P3 organization in recognition of the exceptionally meritorious contributions to the improvement of health for people in West Virginia. This award honors the creative and innovative work in applying knowledge and practice for the betterment of community health.

“Receiving an award from the WVRHA is a great honor. I have so much hope for the future of rural health and rural families considering the multitude of innovative pursuits in this field,” said Lora McDonald, Perinatal Social Worker at Mon Health Medical Center. “Having our modality recognized in this capacity is very affirming, as we have seen firsthand the positive impact the P3 Program has had on families.”
