Our vision
Over the next 2 years we will deliver a mental healthcare service to parents, partners, resellers and health trusts.
We want to connect all mental healthcare stakeholders so they can deliver practical and effective support. Our approach has the potential to reduce the impact of antenatal and post-natal mental illness on the NHS and reduce costs for all healthcare providers.
Tech for good
Our mission is to connect mothers and new parents with the tools and knowledge they need to sustain good mental health and recover from illness. Our approach is based on four key services:
Checker
Survey based on clinical techniques with practical recommendations
Tracker
Emotion diary with weekly reporting; a useful tool for identifying triggers
Locator
Recommended centres and groups based on your requirements
Community
Connectedness, support, companionship and advice
Effective treatment for all
Unfortunately, society is failing to support our new parents with many unable to find appropriate care. Finding themselves ill, new parents can feel lost in a disjointed system of inconsistent and ineffectual support services. This means perinatal mental health costs the UK £8.1 billion a year.
Experts have proven there is no 'one size fits all' approach. But there is hope: Research shows that 80-90% of sufferers recover with early intervention.
At Moment Health, we believe in the positive power of technology. We can connect new mothers and their families with the tools and knowledge they need to sustain good mental health and recover from illness.
Our analytics-based technology provides valuable and accurate info that allows people and their clinicians to take the right steps towards recovery.
