Members of the IMPLICIT network presented a poster about Interconception Care (ICC) last month at the annual North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) meeting in New York. The energy and excitement of this inter-professional, international conference provided a great opportunity to showcase preliminary ICC data. Our poster shared exciting results from nearly 2,700 unique babies being followed with our innovative model of using WCVs to screen mothers.
We generated a lot of traffic and interest in the project from a range of health professionals with different backgrounds. From medical students to residency faculty to community health workers to practicing physicians, providers were eager to learn more about the rationale and feasibility of implementing ICC in their settings. Many researchers gave positive feedback, validating the work that the network is doing in this arena. Some words used to describe the work were “intuitive” and “brilliant”. As we continue to disseminate ICC across primary care disciplines, we know others will agree wholeheartedly!
