Community perinatal mental health teams
Community perinatal mental health teams support mothers who are experiencing moderate to severe mental health problems in the perinatal period to recover in the community. They also offer pre-conception advice to women with existing mental health problems who are planning a pregnancy.
They are staffed by a range of professionals and offer family-focused interventions, and work closely with maternity services, health visitors, Talking Therapies , GPs, other community services and third sector organisations.
