Extract from website:

When your work is focused on caring for others, it’s perhaps all the more important that you feel able to speak openly about your own mental health, and seek support when you need it.And, at a time when recruiting and retaining staff is critical for NHS organisations, the need to consider staff wellbeing is all the more obvious.

Staff must feel able, rather than obligated, to stay in work

In a guest blog written for Mental Health at Work, NHS Employers’ Chief Executive Danny Mortimer, is clear. “Staff must feel able, rather than obligated, to stay in work if they are experiencing mental ill health,” he says. In other words, it’s not just about whether people can have time off – it’s about creating the conditions whereby work is a supportive environment where NHS staff can thrive.
