Free coaching for health and social care staff in Scotland
- Do you want to be more active in caring for your health and wellbeing, but not sure what to focus on?
- Do you want to make the most of your strengths during this time, and preserve your energy as much as possible?
- Are you supporting other colleagues or team members during the pandemic?
If the answer to any one of these questions is “Yes” you may want to think about taking up the free coaching offer designed specifically to support all health and social care colleagues in Scotland during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The coaching is delivered by qualified and experienced coaches all of whom have experience of working with and coaching those who work in health and social care services.
The coaching service is managed by NHS Education for Scotland(this link will take you away from our website) in partnership with Know You More(this link will take you away from our website), a digital coaching organisation, who will provide the website for you to sign up and be matched with a coach.
Previous coachees’ experience in their own words:
“It has been a transformational experience, which saved me professionally during the most difficult time of my career.”
“This experience has not only given positive steps for my personal life; it has given me a platform to work on that is invaluable in my position as a support worker.”
