dc.description.abstract | Postpartum depression (PPD) is a disease that has been increasingly plaguing women in recent times. The incidence of PPD is high in Edo state, Nigeria. The researcher’s per-sonal clinical experience was that women who had episodes of PPD are usually provided conven-tional postnatal care with other women going through puerperium. A review of the policy statement of the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Health Sentinel records (2011) shows that there are no national nursing care guidelines for PPD. Consequently, this re-search study developed a model based on the findings of this study. | en_US |
