The NHS Retention Programme is working to understand why staff leave and targeting interventions to support staff. The National Health Service has established a People Recovery Task Force to ensure all staff are safe and supported as services recover from the impact of the pandemic. Health and wellbeing resources for staff include the implementation of 40 mental health hubs, a dedicated helpline and text service, support for flexible working and training for managers to hold wellbeing conversations with staff.
