Purpose: The purpose of this doctor of nursing practice project was to increase patient awareness and knowledge of perinatal anxiety and depression through video education. By providing information on the risk factors, signs and symptoms of anxiety and depression, activities to prevent/reduce symptoms, and local resources, the project aimed to encourage women and their families to discuss maternal mental health and seek help if needed. Background: Pregnancy and postpartum increases a women's vulnerability for developing a mood disorder due to the significant physiological and psychological changes that accompany having a baby. Mood disorders can greatly impact the mothers' and family's health if untreated. The societal stigma of mental health and varying practices of mental health assessment and identification results in underreporting. The complexity of perinatal anxiety and depression increases the need for healthcare providers to educate mothers and their families so that they are informed and can take action to gain mental health support. Methods: Clients from a local breastfeeding and postpartum support center were recruited to watch an educational video on perinatal anxiety and depression via an established online Facebook group. Participants watched the video and completed a pre- and post-survey that assessed awareness, knowledge, confidence, and likeability of the video format on an online research project platform. Results: Twelve participants accessed the project site and completed the demographic questionnaire as eight participants completed the pre-survey, video, and post-survey. No statistically significant differences were found, however, increases in agreement responses after the video education intervention were noted on the post-surveys in seven out of the eight participants. Conclusions: The video education was effective in increasing some knowledge of perinatal anxiety and depression and confidence to seek help. Participants reported that the video was interesting and that they preferred this method of education compared to written material. Limitations surrounding the small sample size and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are reviewed. Future research should include employing the video education created in this project in different clinical settings to determine its impact on maternal mental health outcomes.
