Staff experience

Our staff make us who we are, a listening and caring organisation.

It is important that we support and look after our staff.

We are proud of our award-winning staff wellbeing programme. We provide dedicated staff physios, fitness facilities and staff benefits to show colleagues how valued they are.

Recognising and rewarding staff is an important part of being part of 'Team NUH' and we celebrate our colleagues throughout the year through Trust wide and local recognition schemes.

Clinical Supervision is a practice focused professional relationship, involving a practitioner reflecting on practice guided by a skilled supervisor.

Enabling practitioners to access preceptorship and clinical supervision recognises that support and learning does not end with registration but continues throughout their career.

Through maintaining and improving their knowledge and competence nurses and midwives will be ensuring that they are providing a safe standard of practice to the patients in their care.

Clinical Supervision can:

• Provide evidence of continuous professional development – both as a supervisee and a supervisor
• Facilitate the development of professional self-awareness
• Include mentoring and coaching to facilitate career development

Feedback to Us

Team NUH are given the opportunity to provide continous feedback via a short survey attached to many of communications. The survey asks four short questions, and responses are collected by rating how you feel. Additional comments to add to expand on your ratings are welcomed. They’re not mandated, but they really help us to understand why you feel the way that you do, whether your feedback is positive, or whether it highlights an area where we could be doing more.

National Staff Survey

The National Staff Survey runs annually for around eight weeks during the Autumn. It is a national initiative and a really good way for you to give feedback on NUH. Your responses are particularly important as it is the measure by which we are benchmarked against other trusts and it contains more detail than the quarterly FFT surveys.

As with our continous feedback survey, it is promoted widely across the Trust, however there is one main difference in that you will be sent a personal email and reminders with a link to complete the survey.
