Refining guidance to help new mums in need
A good practice guide for caring for new and expectant mothers and the people close to them has been produced by Leeds and other university partners.
Funded by the NHS, the team worked with families, NHS services and community organisations to explore how services can involve and support those closest to new mothers with moderate to severe mental health difficulties because this is key to enabling the whole family to thrive.
The research findings were used to compile the guide and a video for healthcare workers, setting out good practice in specialist perinatal mental health services and emphasising the need for support for those closest to the mother.
