Health and care staff in the Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire (BSW) area affected by COVID-19 can now access help and support.
Research shows that health and social care workers are likely to have been disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and this service is being set up to help them access support. The BSW Wellbeing Matters service will provide direct access to psychologists and registered mental health clinicians who will use their expertise to assist health and social care key workers in accessing help and support.
Health and social care staff can self-refer to the service by calling 0800 953 9003 and leaving a message or emailing BSWwellbeing-hub@nhs.net (opens new window). They will need to provide their name and contact telephone number for the team to call them back within two working days.
