Primary Care

Join fellow primary care clinicians to learn from local and national experts in pediatric mental health how to address gaps in practice and incorporate new information to effectively manage mental and behavioral health issues in children. We recognize the increasing number of mental health concerns that are managed in the primary care office and aim to support clinician’s ongoing need for further education, training, and access to available local resources.

Babies born in Minnesota benefit from having one of the most comprehensive newborn screening programs in the country. These set of tests check babies for serious, rare disorders that may not be visible at birth but if detected and diagnosed early can be treated or helped through interventions. The three tests are blood spot, hearing, and pulse oximetry screening.
