Professional Wellbeing
- Things at work are getting more difficult and after coping so well to deal with the first months of Covid we are all having to dig deep again. Today's wellbeing and self care article from Andrew Tresidder - Shock, Loss and Distress - looks at how hard it is at the moment working in the NHS and how understanding key factors from both our own professional perspective and also the patient's can help us cope.
