Staff Psychology Service

The Staff Psychology Service was launched on 1st March 2023 and is commissioned to provide a range of evidence based psychological support and interventions to staff, to enable them to manage the emotional impact of working in the NHS

The fundamental aim of the Staff Psychology Service is to meet the psychological needs of staff, increase psychological awareness across the organisation and to support the Moving to Good workstreams.

How we can help:

• Individual support for staff

• Support for teams

• Critical incident debriefing

• Embedding psychological thinking across the organisation

How to contact us:

You can contact the team directly or ask a manager to contact us on your behalf by emailing us at sath. staffpsychology@nhs.net

A member of the team will contact you by email, or by telephone if you prefer, to arrange a time for an initial conversation.

This will usually take place on Teams but we can also arrange to meet in person.

Individual support for staff:

Our team are available to provide psychological support to staff who are struggling with the psychological and emotional impact of their work.

Our service is confidential. That means that no information will be shared outside our conversations with you without your consent. The only exception is regarding concerns about your safety or the safety of others.

Should a manager make contact with us on your behalf we will email to acknowledge that the request has been received and that a member of the team will make contact but will not share any further information.

If in doubt please get in touch. We welcome any conversations to explore whether psychological support would be helpful for you.

We are looking for volunteers aged 16 upwards to help in our shops within the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital. Volunteering with us is a great way to meet like minded people, add life skills, build your social confidence and can also boost your CV.

Shifts start at just 2 hours a week and we work around your availability.
