This book is relevant for psychologists, psychosocial
practitioners, healthcare leaders and those with an interest in
staff support and wellbeing in healthcare settings. It showcases a
wide variety of work using different psychological approaches,
including systemic, psychodynamic, narrative, trauma focused and
compassion practices. Psychologists are involved at many different
levels in staff support, however it is by no means exclusively
their domain; with over forty contributors, this book presents
collaborations with many other professionals, including chaplains
and colleagues from organizational development, human resources and
occupational health, as well as describing how psychological
thinking can be applied more broadly to staff wellbeing. The first
part of the book introduces key psychological principles and ideas
related to psychological staff support. This section discusses how
to make equality diversity and inclusion central, presents
relational and systemic models applied to the healthcare workforce,
and concepts such as moral injury, and looks at how to evaluate the
work. The second part focuses on practice and different ways of
working with healthcare staff at an individual, team and
organisational level. Included here are reflective practice models,
the use of EMDR in supporting healthcare staff, debriefs, strategic
working and support for senior staff. A key theme emerges
throughout the book, which is that no amount of staff support
resources and professionals can alone address broader issues such
as discrimination and bullying in the workplace, healthcare funding
and staff shortage. These, of course, fundamentally affect the
wellbeing of staff. Ideas are put forward as to ways wellbeing
practitioners may use their influence strategically to work with
leadership and organisations to support improvements to working
conditions and develop cultures of compassion and inclusivity.
