Description

Patients who suffer trauma as a result of pregnancy or giving birth can now get support from a new Maternal Mental Health Service here at STSFT.

To talk about this service on this episode of Our People Podcast we were joined by Lead Midwife for Maternal Mental Health, Lorna Middlemass and Clinical Psychologist, Lyndsey Hall.

The pair discuss how the service has many different support avenues for pregnant people and their families.

Lorna and Lyndsey also talk about how the service meets the needs of the NHS Long Term Plan which sets out the ambition to establish Maternal Mental Health Services in all areas of England by 2023/24.
