Mothers’ and professionals’ experiences of perinatal OCD on MBUs

Overview

Have you received a diagnosis of Perinatal OCD and had an admission to a mother and baby unit?
If yes, we need your help!

We want to capture a range of experiences to support the development of effective treatment for women with Perinatal OCD on Mother and Baby Units (MBUs).

Who can take part?
To take part you must have had a diagnosis of perinatal OCD and an admission to an MBU in the UK within the last 3 years.

What will I be asked to do?
You will be asked to take part in an online 1-to-1 interview via Microsoft Teams to discuss your experiences on MBUs. This will take approximately 1 hour.

What's in it for me?
It is hoped that sharing your experience will improve treatment approaches for women with Perinatal OCD on MBUs. You will receive a £20 git voucher to thank you for your time.
