Integrated care for pregnant women with psychiatric and psychosocial problems; patients’ and healthcare providers’ perspectives
This study supports the acceptability of the (MCL-)POP-outpatient clinic. Patients and POP-specialists underscore the need of personalised care. While patients also find communication and a trustful relationship with the healthcare professional important, POP-specialists are more inclined to focus on social context and prevention. These different views provide ground for future research on multidisciplinary care in perinatal mental healthcare.
