Perinatal mother and baby units are an essential service for women suffering from perinatal mental illness by allowing the baby to stay with the mother whilst receiving inpatient mental health care. Such units enable the mother to develop a relationship with her baby in a safe and supportive environment whilst caring for her mental health needs and allow her to gain confidence in her role as a mother. This article presents the development of the Brockington Mother and Baby unit and its progressive advancement towards an exemplary service for women suffering from perinatal mental illness. The Brockington Mother and Baby unit (MBU) at South Staffordshire and Shropshire Healthcare Foundation Trust (SSSFT) is celebrating its 10th anniversary and is one of six MBUs accredited as excellent by the Royal College of Psychiatry (RCPsych). The unit is a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists' Quality Care Network and thereby adheres to their national standard of care. This article describes the journey from a single lone worker in perinatal mental health to an exemplary service caring for women with perinatal mental illness during the first 12 months following the birth of their child.
围产期母婴病房对于患有围产期精神疾病的女性来说是一项至关重要的服务，它能让婴儿在母亲接受住院精神卫生护理期间与母亲待在一起。这样的病房能让母亲在满足自身精神健康需求的同时，在安全且支持性的环境中与婴儿建立关系，还能让她对自己作为母亲的角色充满信心。本文介绍了布罗金顿母婴病房的发展历程以及它在为患有围产期精神疾病的女性提供模范服务方面的逐步进展。南斯塔福德郡和什罗普郡医疗保健基金会信托基金（SSSFT）的布罗金顿母婴病房（MBU）正在庆祝其成立10周年，它是被皇家精神病学院（RCPsych）认定为优秀的六个母婴病房之一。该病房是皇家精神病学院优质护理网络的成员，因此遵循其全国护理标准。本文描述了从围产期精神卫生领域的一名孤独工作者发展成为在女性产后头12个月为患有围产期精神疾病的女性提供模范护理服务的历程。
