NHS workplace wellbeing initiatives
Local NHS workplaces recognise that staff well-being is key to productivity, performance, engagement and the patient experienceThey have set up a comprehensive range of interventions to improve wellbeing including physiotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, mindfulness and mental health awareness training for managers.
LSBU provided an independent evaluation of the impact of these interventions on staff well-being, stress, mental ill-health and sickness absence.
