COACHING FOR
WELLBEING
Supporting colleagues to carry on working
Our coaching for wellbeing service provides bespoke support to surgeons, anaesthetists, consultants, other senior medical and managerial colleagues who want to make sure they are in the right frame of mind to continue to contribute effectively and look after their own wellbeing.
The NHS is a demanding place and sometimes it can be hard to cope with the demands. This is especially true given the ongoing staffing situation and the extra demands that this puts on NHS staff.
Over the past two years we have supported more than 500 colleagues across almost 20 Trusts. Some of the issues that this support can help you with include:
-
Finding the resources to look after your own wellbeing so that you don’t burn out or get over stressed.
-
Dealing with fears and anxieties around returning to work.
-
Re-building your confidence after a break from work.
-
Working through anything that troubles you about the ongoing challenges of working in the NHS.
-
Anything else that will help you feel in the right frame of mind to feel confident about continuing to work or returning to work.

I found the session really helpful. Wish I had had it months earlier. From my perspective it would be useful to have a session every few months (2-3 times a year) to keep me focussed and motivated... has definitely made me more productive and feeling much more positive.
