In health & care, we often focus on a narrow concept of improving "staff experience", when we could be building a much deeper & more profound basis of human connection at work: a sense of belonging. Belonging is when an employee, regardless of their background or role, knows that their voice matters, that their unique experiences enrich the team & that they're not just seen, but understood. Organisations that build a sense of belonging have higher levels of engagement, retention & performance: linkedin.com/pulse/belongin… By @hacking_hr

@advocacy_forum @Baxter_Heyes @NursingEmma Love this idea!

Stress is unavoidable. Stress is what creates the sense of meaning and purpose in jobs like #nursing and #midwifery There is no end point to stress. You will never win the game and feel complete in "managing stress". You can however master how you RESPOND to it.

Integral to PNA’s A-EQUIP, model of supervision, is creating and sustaining psychologically safe cultures👇. It requires recognition of the #PNA clinical leadership role and protected time ASAP. Needed now more than ever before. #Retention #Safety @PNAdvocates

Let’s make that mission #JoyInWork 😃

This is very true 👇

Isn’t this just a wonderful thing that my son’s teacher has just shared with parents. Bravo 👏

@apnoeaboy @thefourthcraw I’ve had sleep paralysis since I was a child. Unfortunately the only thing that works for me is Fluoxetine! Have been taking it now for 8 years and haven’t had any episodes since 😵‍💫😴
