MindWise - Mums Wellness Project
The project aims to meet the maternal mental health needs at this perinatal stage and reduce need for referral to statutory adult community mental health services. The project works in partnership with the local Family Support Hub, healthcare professionals including GPs, Health Visitors, Midwives and other community/voluntary groups.
What we do
We recognise both the joys and challenges that becoming a parent brings. MindWise offers support for emotional health and well-being on a 1:1 basis through the Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) programme. The aim is to help expectant/new mums and/or their partners to manage difficult feelings and develop action plans to help them feel better on their road to recovery.
The programme is delivered in the mothers own home or in a community venue local to your home. Alternatively, if it suits you better, the programme can be provided online. We aim to reduce any barriers on being able to access the support.
Areas we cover
Western Health and Social Care Trust (Fermanagh)
Who we’re funded by
The Wellness Service is funded by Department of Health through Community Foundation.
