Congratulations to colleagues from the North East and North Cumbria Staff Health and Wellbeing Hub, who have been recognised on a national stage for their outstanding work supporting our workforce.
The team received a national NHS Excellence Award, winning the ‘Valuing Our People’ category at the awards ceremony held in Manchester as part of NHS ConfedExpo. This award recognises the dedication of the team and the positive impact the service continues to have on the wellbeing of our workforce.
Congratulations to everyone involved – a fantastic and well-deserved achievement.
Working or volunteering in the NHS, social care or similar voluntary sector organisations can be demanding. If things feel tough, whether that is at work or home, you don’t have to deal with it on your own.
The North East and North Cumbria staff wellbeing hub offers free, confidential support for anyone working in health or social care across our region.
The hub provides quick access to one to one support from an experienced mental health professional, along with up to three short follow-up sessions if needed. It can also help you find other services if you need longer-term support. You can talk about anything affecting your wellbeing, from stress and burnout to personal challenges.
Using the hub is simple and flexible. You can refer yourself and your employer will not be informed. Most appointments are carried out by phone or video, making it easier to fit around work and home life and you will usually hear back within a working day.
To access support, you can:
Appointments will be arranged at a time that suits you.
This national recognition shines a light on the importance of supporting our workforce and making sure help is there when it’s needed.
If you or someone you know could benefit from support, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the hub and share this offer with colleagues.
