Course Description:
This home-study course provides social workers with comprehensive knowledge about the physiology of menopause, the symptoms and conditions that often accompany it, and the most recent findings on treatment. Because many of the menopausal symptoms lend themselves to behavioral approaches, the course provides social workers with specific information about exercise, sleep hygiene, nutrition, additives and other approaches that can help menopausal women to improve functionality Social workers will also be able to counsel their perimenopausal patients about avoiding the preventable risk factors for heart disease, including obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, and a sedentary lifestyle. For each condition, self-help strategies are spelled out.
