ROOTS™
Restoring Obstetric Outcomes Through Therapeutic Support
Perinatal mental health conditions are the number one complication of pregnancy and birth. Untreated perinatal mental illness carries measurable risks.
The Clinical Crisis
❋ Patients experience a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder
❋ of pregnancy-related deaths are linked to suicide and overdose
❋ of patients that screen for depression receive treatment Illinois Identified the Gap
Screening is increasing. Follow-up care is not.
Most practices can screen, document, and refer but almost none can guarantee the follow-up that turns a referral into actual care.
Navigation and Barrier ResolutionROOTS patient navigators provide patient outreach and schedule within 14 days. Grant provisions for under-insured patients.
Risk Triage & EscalationIncreased risk and acute symptoms can occur throughout pregnancy and the first year postpartum. We are evaluating and triaging patients.
Quality ImprovementTracking patient metrics and data for quality improvement and equity measures. Because happy and healthy parents, raise happy and healthy babies.
Identification and Warm ReferralA patient is identified as high-risk, potentially high-risk or positive screen. Warm handoff to ROOTS patient navigator.
Psychotherapy & PsychiatryPatient meets with a perinatal therapist and medication manager prescribed check-ins and sessions, as indicated
Closed Loop CommunicationThe patient’s provider is always in the know regarding patient’s care plan and well-being. Continued provider education and consultation.
ROOTS is a structured perinatal mental health continuum of care, embedded directly into obstetric care. So after a positive screen there is a clear next step to getting patients the right help and support.
