Whilst we cannot change work culture alone or fully control wellbeing needs, we can all do small simple things to contribute to it getting better

Even small things can have a big impact

There’s so many benefits to starting small with change 🌺

“Big Bang” changes can be chaotic, uncontrolled, confusing & unappreciative of environmental factors

Overthinking is a risk for leaders. It involves thinking about a decision or topic excessively, reading all kinds of possibilities into the situation. Actions we can take to reduce overthinking:
1) Pay attention to the way we think.
2) Have some perspective.
3) Focus on the things we can change.
4) Get a good start every day.
5) Schedule some time for reflection.
6) Practice mindfulness.
7) Stop being a perfectionist.
8) Recognise we can't control everything.

When considering a diagnosis for our leg ulcers we commonly find that staff have identified the wound as a traumatic wound. We need to remember that if a wound on the lower leg is present for 2 weeks or more it is classed as a leg ulcer (NICE, 2013)
