Bonding for Life with
Love…

In 2019, in 10 hospitals of 10 cities, Molfix, in cooperation with the General Directorate of Turkish Public Hospitals and Baby Mental Health Association, designed the Bond with Love CSR project in 3 stages by analyzing the priority and expectations of the mothers staying in mother guesthouses and the needs of hospitals:

• Educational and psychological support for mothers and the midwives/nurses who establish the first communication with mothers,
• Physical investments to mother guesthouses, where they stay while waiting for their babies in intensive care units, to meet the personal and social needs of the mothers,
• Vital medical devices have been provided for the needs of neonatal intensive care units.

• Psychological education is provided to mothers who are traumatized and whose babies stay in intensive care units. Mothers are informed about the importance of mother & baby bonding under the title “Secure attachment bond”. With the given support, it is aimed to reduce mood disorders of the mothers such as guilty feelings. The education for mothers is carried out with our contracted therapists who visited them in guesthouses of each hospital, providing them education.
• With the education prepared for midwives and nurses involved in neonatal intensive care, it is intended to increase their professional and personal development. It is important to improve them by teaching the way of communication with mothers in this period. They were trained by our contracted academicians.
• The Second stage of the project is the physical investment for Mother Guesthouses such as hospital-type breast pumps, tea & coffee machines, and social networking tables to meet their needs and help them feel at home.
• Vital devices for babies that should be in the neonatal intensive care unit, such as incubators, respiratory devices, jaundice meters, and bedside monitors have also been donated to 10 hospitals. Thereby, more babies are aimed to be treated.
