How can we build resilience and promote self-care at work? And what can we do at a Trust and wider level?

We speak with two consultant paediatricians:

First up is Dr Seb Gray, a consultant paediatrician in Salisbury, who wears many hats when it comes to promoting joy at work. Seb is on the editorial team of membership magazine, Milestones where he introduced a regular feature on wellbeing. He also led a subgroup of our Paediatrics 2040 programme, which produced a report full of practical ideas on supporting wellbeing (PDF).

Next, Dr Dal Hothi, our Officer for Lifelong Careers, shares her four-part framework on wellbeing, which includes how we can build resilience and promote work-life balance and self-care. She’s looking at how we can build a Wellbeing and Innovation, or WIN, community – cultivating a sense of connection and standing up for paediatricians.
