Abstract
The Perceived Personal Control Model (PPC), a novel crisis intervention model for Ceasarean Birth (C/B) populations, is used at Rambam Medical Center by medical caregivers trained in the principles of the crisis intervention model. This model tackles risk factors in the environment by manipulating such situational variables as natural and organized support systems, information, sharing the decision making process, and developing task oriented activity geared to enhance emotional, cognitive, and behavioral control. The specific objective of the intervention model is to help the C/B mother to accomplish the specific psychological tasks. The general objective is to develop a prototype model for other high risk populations. The PPC model with respect to a C/B population is discussed.
