Overview:
Based on WHO guidance, supporting mental health is essential in improving health outcomes in maternity care, ensuring a safe, respectful and non-judgmental environment for mothers and babies. Therefore, it is important to focus on theoretical and practical teaching of perinatal mental health in the midwifery curriculum.

Aims and Objectives:
The aim is to investigate midwife students' feedback on the mental health subject.

Method:
The feedback survey from midwifery students has been collected over a 3-year period from three fourth study year midwife groups. Feedback was asked about three main topics: general mental health and psychiatric care, perinatal mental health and counseling, and mental health internship in hospitals. Feedback was provided by 56 students.

Results:
The results show that 95.00% of students are satisfied with the subject as a whole and its necessity. Students also noted that more simulations and counseling practice are needed in perinatal mental health and counseling as a bottleneck in the subject. Students recognized that more complex perinatal mental health issues, such as fetal death, neonatal and/or maternal death, require more counseling skills and practice. Also, how to ensure one's own personal integrity and empathy. The proposal emphasized increasing the topic of perinatal mental health, as it is a key part of a midwife's work. Feedback on the hospital internship was mostly positive. It was found that during the internship it was possible to practice and consolidate the knowledge learned in theory.

Conclusion:
As a result of analyzing the feedback, it is possible to improve the content quality of the mental health subject to ensure the best possible fulfillment of learning outcomes and perinatal mental health competencies in midwifery work.
