The State Hospital

We're supporting #AlcoholAwarenessWeek, when @AlcoholChangeUK are opening the conversation about the relationship between alcohol and work and how making changes to our drinking, even a little, can make a big difference to improving our health, productivity and happiness.

All our Nurses receive clinical supervision which provides a structured and safe environment to reflect on their clinical practice, enhance their skills and knowledge, and foster self-awareness & self-care to deliver high-quality care. #BuildingResilience #ProfessionalConfidence
