Transitioning Home
as a Newly Adoptive Family:
Things to Prepare For
How can you have a smoother transition to adoptive parenting?
Adopting a baby or child brings great joys and also challenges. The transition home as a newly adopted family can be stressful and post-adoption depression is not uncommon. In this course, we interview Dr. Karen Foli, Director of the Ph.D. in Nursing Program at Purdue University School of Nursing. She is a leading researcher in the post-adoption transition and is the co-author of Post Adoption Blues and Nursing Care of Adoption and Kinship Families, which received the American Psychiatric Nurses Association 2018 Award for Media.
