Amy's journey from children's nurse to perinatal Peer Support Worker

MPFT is committed to offering those with lived experience the opportunity to become part of the Trust and work within our teams to provide their unique insights in support of service users. An increasing number of Peer Support Workers are joining MPFT and for this edition of The MPFT Podcast we were joined by Amy Hill, who works as a Peer Support Worker with our Perinatal and Maternal Mental Health Team in South Staffordshire. Whilst Amy’s story is unique, her journey of mental health recovery following childbirth is one that many will identify with, and Amy is channelling her lived experience into helping those requiring specialist support. If you find today’s episode rewarding, please also check out our podcast conversation with fellow Peer Support Worker Emma Mansell-Grey, who works in our Community Perinatal Mental Health Team in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin – https://youtu.be/hOcLeGIF_sc?si=TbgBTyhJL7P7PVgJLinksYou can watch the video version of this episode of The MPFT Podcast at - https://youtu.be/NZSIaUXYJiUYou can read a transcript of this episode of The MPFT Podcast at - https://www.mpft.nhs.uk/application/files/4017/7936/5656/The_MPFT_Podcast_114_Transcript_-_Amys_journey_from_childrens_nurse_to_perinatal_Peer_Support_Worker.docx
