Preventive Health Programs
LifeSynch offers two free preventive health programs for participating members and practitioners that focus on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and postpartum depression.
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Distorder (ADHD) Prevention Program
Children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) have problems with concentration, hyperactivity, and acting impulsively. Caring for children with ADHD can be tiring and stressful for the family.
LifeSynch offers three newsletters on ADHD focusing on:
- Understanding ADHD
- Suggestions for working with children who have ADHD
- Dealing with family stress
How to Participate
If you are a participating practitioner or a member who is a parent or guardian of a child with ADHD and would like to receive the free newsletter series, please call LifeSynch toll-free at 1-866-279-7214. We urge you to call today.
More Information
Early Recognition of Postpartum Depression Prevention Program
Between 50-80 percent of women become depressed after giving birth. For most women, these baby blues, or feelings of sadness, disappear after a few days. For 10-15 percent, these gloomy feelings linger and turn into postpartum depression.
Postpartum depression is much more serious than the baby blues and can affect a mother's ability to take care of her child. Luckily, it is a very treatable problem.
LifeSynch offers helpful information for pregnant women and women who have recently given birth, including:
- the symptoms of the baby blues and postpartum depression
- risk factors for developing one of these problems
- explanations of the different treatment options.
How to Participate
If you are a member receiving pre-natal care or a LifeSynch physician, we will mail information to you about the baby blues and postpartum depression. We encourage you to read this material and share it with your husband or partner. You can also request the information by calling
toll-free 1-866-279-7214.
