Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership have been working with Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh NHS Foundation Trust on a baseline workforce survey to capture a snapshot on thoughts and experiences of ‘Psychological Safety in the Workplace’.
This survey has been designed to understand how psychologically safe you feel as an individual within your team, and workplace. This includes the environment that your team leader creates, the beliefs that you hold about your team, and finally the behaviours that you see within the teams you work with.

For any organisations with NHS health funding there is a meeting to support completing the NHS data security protection toolkit on 6 February, 10am-12pm at Salford CVS.

It was also recently asked for as part of the GMCA procurement for Working Health Specialist Support (Mental Health, Learning Disability and Autism). So it is becoming something more and more organisations in the sector are having to complete.
