Atebwyd gan Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
We are committed to ensuring that staff can access proactive, high-quality support at the time which they need it most, and are in constant dialogue with our health boards, trusts and the trade unions to understand how we can provide targeted funding and services to complement the local support available for the workforce.
We work closely with our all-Wales NHS and Social Care Health and Wellbeing Network, which shares best practice across organisations and workplaces in supporting staff physical and mental health. Network members are currently developing a Workforce Health and Wellbeing Framework for NHS Wales which was a commitment in the A Healthier Wales: Workforce Strategy.
Funded by Welsh Government and administered by Cardiff University, the Canopi service offers access to free, non-emergency, confidential, mental health and wellbeing support to all NHS and Social Care staff working in Wales. More than 5,000 people from the Welsh NHS and social care workforce have accessed and received support from Canopi since April 2022.
