answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/04/2019 answer text <p>The Department recognises that becoming a parent can have significant impact on an individual’s mental health. NHS England has invested in better perinatal mental health care for new and expectant mothers, with at least 9,000 additional women receiving treatment last year. This is significant progress against the target set out in the Five Year Forward View for Mental Health for at least 30,000 additional women each year to access evidence-based specialist perinatal mental health treatment.</p><p> </p><p>The NHS Long Term Plan commits to extend this support, including by offering fathers and partners of women accessing specialist perinatal mental health services and maternity outreach clinics evidence-based assessment for their mental health and signposting to support as required. This will contribute to helping to care for the 5-10% of fathers who experience mental health difficulties during the perinatal period.</p><p> </p><p>Parents are also able to access care and support, including talking therapies or specific community mental health support, the same as any other patient group.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 09/04/2019 15:19:48 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
