The Workforce of Tomorrow

Wednesday 27th January

The care sector have shown true strength, resilience and adaptiveness in their COVID-19 response, but as we look towards the future, what can be done to support a workforce under such pressures?

This webisode aims to discuss key issues such as training, recruitment, retention, resilience, and mental health in the social care workforce. By sharing best practice and their experiences, our expert speakers will provide insight and clarity to such issues and explore how we can support the workforce to allow them to do what they do best; caring.
