About the hub

- Bereavement
- Emergency services
- Domestic abuse
- Debt advice
- Addiction
- People with disabilities
- Relationship support
- Lesbian, gay , bisexual, transgender/transsexual, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA)
- Black, asian, and minority ethnic (BAME)
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Faiths, religions and personal beliefs
- Training
- Career development
- Peer support
- Recruitment
This service is designed to be a centralised area of resources, to help you find organisation specific advice and documentation to get the help that is needed, when it is needed.
We aim to help our valued teams, working within our health care services; those employed within the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.
We will reach out to the wider community to represent services that sometimes feel distanced. These include:
- Emergency care
- Non-emergency care
- Patient support
- Care homes
- Pharmacies
- General Practitioners (GPs) and GP staff
The future of the hub
In the first instance, this service will provide signposting to relevant organisations that specialise in self-help and advice regarding mental health and wellbeing.
Our aim is for this Hub to provide ongoing assistance to healthcare staff and to provide support and advice in many other ways, tailored to your requirements:
- Events
- Webinars
- Care plans
There will be a place for you to leave your feedback. There will be a dedicated response team to make sure your voice is heard.
You will be provided with organisation specific training to improve and normalise help-seeking behaviour.
We will overcome the stigma and barriers to access mental health and wellbeing services.
We will provide rapid clinical assessment for staff members who are dealing with a mental health or wellbeing challenge, to identify where help is required.
