Our Service Directory
For many years PANDA has maintained a database of Victorian services that provide support and treatment to women with post and antenatal depression and their families, the PND Services Database. During this time many women and their families have been supported to access these services that have been vital to their recovery from post and antenatal depression.
About the PND Services Database:
PANDA subscribes to the Infocom (services directory) software that provides access to listings of thousands of community, health and support services around Victoria. This is updated regularly by the software company Datascape. The PND Services Database is a custom made directory within the Infocom software that contains entries of services that are known to specifically have skills in and work in the field of post or antenatal depression.
The categories within the PND Services Database:
The Database categories reflect PANDA's biopsychosocial model of post and antenatal depression and recovery, that is medical, psychological and emotional services. The biopsychosocial needs of people who call PANDA are assessed by staff and volunteers. All callers are then offered information and contact details for service options within their local area, especially if the caller is not accessing existing support services. Sometimes support and follow up is provided to ensure that the caller has been able to access the services. Contact PANDA for details of services within your local area.
Categories of services:
- General Practitioners
- Psychiatrists
- Psychologists and Counsellors
- PND Support Groups
- Supported PND Playgroups
- Mother Baby Units
- Other support services
Criteria for entry to the PND Services Database:
Different services and workers must have had specific training or experience in working with women with antenatal or postnatal depression and their families to be able to be entered onto the Database. The service must also provide one or more of the specific service categories covered in the directory.
