Today is world mental heath day.
As a training academy (and as Jane Wigg), I’m passionate about looking out for each other. Female Nurses have a 23% higher rate of su***de than the general population, and the highest rates of su***de in women are 45- 49, the age group we commonly train.
You are not alone- we know it’s tough out there, and work is hard, and that affects general life.
Many of you will have heard me talk on this subject, close to my heart.
💖 Next year I’ll be running four free full day ‘Turnabout’ training sessions, supporting who ever wants to attend (32 places).
Before then- I’m here 💙🩵
Turnabout helps you ignore that negative voice in your head, and will help you turn your life around
