Staff Wellbeing Suites

We are all facing one of the biggest challenges yet as NHS workers. We know over the next few months our staff will face personal, physical and emotional challenges. Because of this we have developed Staff Wellbeing sites at Crosshouse and Ayr hospital. The wellbeing initiatives are supported by Medical Peer Support, Clinical Psychology Service, Staff Support and Chaplaincy. We aim to provide a safe space for all staff to access, where they will find a variety of facilities to support their physical and emotional wellbeing.

Wellbeing Suites are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at the following locations:

Crosshouse hospital: Maxwell Suite

Ayr Hospital: Occupational Therapy Department

Available within the Suite:

Information about your health and wellbeing

Access to Medical Peer Support

Access to Clinical Psychology

Team meeting (debrief) room

Hot / cold drinks and snacks

Meals for staff unable to go home

Quiet area

Bedroom / Restroom

Toiletries

TV

Games

Mindfulness activities / apps

Exercise bike, weights, yoga mat

Ailsa Hospital: Chaplaincy Room

(main corridor taking you out/in the back of main building)

The room has been set up to offer somewhere for staff to come to have time out, for relaxation, mindfulness or distraction. Ideally staff can have time to use the room outwith allocated break times and enjoy the calming music, environment and various items dotted around to help with distracting/relaxing themselves. There is also tea, coffee, water and biscuits provided.

The room is open 24/7 and will be manned for short periods only throughout the week.

New research looks at value of NHS green space for workplace wellbeing

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Could greenery, gardens and wild areas at NHS sites help combat workplace stress and improve staff wellbeing? A new research project led by the Centre for Sustainable Healthcare is exploring the value of green space and outdoor activities for health staff, with a focus on the work of three different health facilities.

Theme 1: Spaces for health and wellbeing 

# data[].attributes.body
We were split into teams of 3 or 4 and given a theme for the project. My theme is this one above about 'SPACES'.

# data[].attributes.body
We have been asked to look at the project thorugh 3 different lenses to give us a hollistic view of the services.

# data[].attributes.body
We wanted to choose 3 people to represent each of the words, physical, digital and hybrid. We did this to maximise the responses we got as well as getting every response possible.

Physical: The nominee to be constantly on the move and in different departments mixing with many people.

Digital: The nomiee to be mostly online or plugged in with hospitals software.

Hybrid: A person who is works at home maybe but comes in regularly or does zoom regularly.

# data[].attributes.body
In order to come up with possible questions for our interview we decided to brainstorm around key words (light yellow) and base our questions around that. We will bring these questions upin our Theme 1 meeting where we will decide questions as a team to send bring forward.

Interview #1 - Kirsty McKinlay, Staff nurse at the addiction unit 

# data[].attributes.body
Our first interview with the staff nurse at the addiction unit was very successful. We gained very good insights and she was very happy and open to answer any question and surprisingly some of it was brutally honest which only yielded better insights for the project. Personally it made me closer to the project as I realised that there could actually be something very interesting and good to design here.
