Retaining National Health Service (NHS) staff is a priority for this Government, as outlined in the NHS People Plan 2020/2021 and the NHS People Promise. The NHS People Plan aims to create a compassionate NHS culture that will retain staff by prioritising their health and wellbeing, ensuring a fair and inclusive workplace, promoting opportunities for professional development and supporting flexible working. The NHS People Recovery Task Force and the NHS retention programme is continuously seeking to understand why staff leave, resulting in targeted interventions to support staff to stay.
