Required CPSP Services
Client Orientation... An Introduction to CPSP, including what services are available, who will provide
services, and when and where they will be provided.
Initial Assessment and Reassessments... In addition to the obstetrical assessment, a complete nutrition,
health education, and psychosocial assessment, using state-approved assessment forms, is completed at the beginning
of care and the client is reassessed in subsequent trimesters.
Individualized Care Plan... A care plan developed with the client that includes appropriate interventions
to resolve problems identified in assessments and reassessments. The care plan is revised or updated at least each
trimester or more often, if necessary.
Interventions... Individual education, counseling, group classes, and referrals to meet a client’s needs
as noted on the individualized care plan.
Postpartum Assessment and Care Plan... An assessment of the health education, nutrition, and psychosocial
status of the postpartum mother, including updating the care plan with interventions that address new or previously
identified risks that may be resolved prior to her next pregnancy (interconception care).
