Alder Hey CAMHS will help you to take a fresh look at the ‘1001 critical days’. This half-day training will give you a framework for understanding the theoretical background as to why the first 1001 days (from conception to age 2) in a child’s life is so important and critical to social and emotional development. Together, we will explore the importance of early intervention and the impact of perinatal mental health on the infant. We also think about the effects of attachment on baby brain development. You will be able to critically reflect on your own professional practice through group exercises and discussion with colleagues. The final part of the half day will consider the range of clinical interventions with parents and infants that can be accessed via CAMHS, how to access CAMHS consultation and how to refer to CAMHS. The session will be interactive and will create a space to connect with other professionals.
