There is compelling evidence that the physical health of people with severe mental illness is poor. Health-promotion guidelines have been recommended as a mechanism for improving the physical health of this population. However, there are significant barriers to the adoption of evidence-based guidelines in practice. The purpose of this research was to apply existing implementation theories to examine the capability of the health system to integrate physical health promotion into mental health service delivery. Data were collected within a regional city in Queensland, Australia. Fifty participants were interviewed. The core theme that emerged from the data was that of 'care boundaries' that influenced the likelihood of guidelines being implemented. Boundaries existed around the illness, care provision processes, sectors, the health-care system, and society. These multilevel boundaries, combined with participants' ways of responding to them, impacted on capability (i.e. the ability to integrate physical health promotion into existing practices). Participants who were able to identify strategies to mediate these boundaries were better positioned to engage with physical health-promotion practice. Thus, the implementation of evidence-based guidelines depended heavily on the capability of the workforce to develop and adopt boundary-mediating strategies.

NIH Women's Health Roundtable: Maternal Mental Health Research

Elevating Women's Voices to Improve Maternal Mental Health

Date and Time

Elevating Women's Voices to Improve Maternal Mental Health is the third event in the NIH Women’s Health Roundtable Series  , which focuses on important women’s health topics, such as maternal mental health, as part of the  White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research  . This series was developed as a recommended action in response to the Presidential Memorandum  to bring attention to priority topics within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and to disseminate information on federally supported research areas.

The roundtable is also featured in the National Institute of Mental Health’s (NIMH) Office of Disparities Research and Workforce Diversity Webinar Series , which focuses on mental health equity research topics. The event is co-hosted by the NIH Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH)  and NIMH.

The goals of this roundtable are to:

  • Spotlight high-priority research areas related to women's mental health during pregnancy and the postpartum period, up to one year following childbirth.
  • Share information on how NIMH-supported research advances the development of and access to screening, diagnostics, and preventive and treatment interventions to improve women’s mental health during the perinatal period.
  • Explain how maternal mental health research can reduce the burden of mental illnesses that contribute to maternal morbidity and mortality.
  • Identify and explore gaps in areas critical to women’s research outlined within the Executive Order on Advancing Women's Health Research and Innovation (EO 14120)  and the 2024-2028 NIH-Wide Strategic Plan for Research on the Health of Women   .

Registration
