Caring for you – support available

EEAST Wellbeing Support

Remember it is not a sign of weakness to seek help with your wellbeing, nor are you letting down colleagues. Seeking support early can help avoid more serious problems from surfacing later. This is better for you, your colleagues, your family and the Trust.

If you are feeling unsettled following any incident, please access TRiM by completing the referral form on East24 and forwarding (securely) to the Wellbeing Hub. This may be due to abusive or aggressive patients/ families, it may be the nature of the scene you have attended, whatever the cause, we want to support you.

Ambulance services across the UK have been under severe pressure for several weeks now and we recognise the strain that is being placed on staff. As a result we are providing additional resources: identifying and training more TRiM practitioners and revamping the wellbeing hub on East24 to encourage a higher uptake of the services we have available.
