Sample IdealDiscussionAnswer (Example,300wordsexcerpt):
Early postpartum care bridges a critical gap in maternal safety. Evidence shows that timely blood pressure monitoring in women with gestational hypertension, and early screening for postpartum depression, reduces readmission and suicide risk. FNPs can create lowbarrier access models (telehealth, home visits), use culturally tailored education, and coordinate community resources. According to ACOG (2023), followup within 710days for hypertensive or depressive symptoms is lifesaving. Integration of family-centered education, lactation counseling, and contraception review should occur in every early postpartum contact.
