The Work Well Programme for staff resilience and retention in Healthcare

Support for your wellbeing leads, resources for your teams, and training for your workforce to help them beat stress, set boundaries around their work, protect their time, and thrive in work and life.

Getting people in a room for in-person training is costly, challenging, and doesn’t always feel “worth it” for the time it takes out of people’s work days.

Staff can end up feeling patronised or blamed by well-meaning advice delivered by people who have no experience of working in healthcare, and that doesn’t take into account their challenging roles.

The system is stretched and a culture of overwork and exhaustion is tricky to turn around with “generic” wellbeing advice. We know that people in caring professions are more likely to suffer from burnout – and often feel intensely guilty about putting themselves first…

and yet, the high rates of stress, exhaustion and burnout impact everyone – from teams struggling to maintain staff levels and morale, to service users and patients when staff are exhausted and overwhelmed.

Many organisations have appointed wellbeing leads in their departments and practices but often these wellbeing leads feel unsupported, worried they might do the wrong thing, and don't have the resources they need to make a difference.

That's why we created the Work Well Programme. It's been running since October 2023, and now includes added resources and support for your wellbeing leads.
