Description

Demand on Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services continues to increase, whilst recruiting and retaining staff remains challenging. This talk will summarise the findings of our mixed methods study exploring the views of staff on using nature-based approaches in CAMHS. In particular it highlights how respondents associate potential benefits for staff retention and wellbeing with working in this way. It links theory with possible benefits for patients that were identified by staff and also summarises their concerns. The role of patient and public involvement will be described and the way in which combining patient and staff voice can support clear communication with stakeholders.

Learning Objectives

A: To understand the current levels of burn-out and wellbeing in CAMHS staff
B: To consider the potential benefits and challenges of having a nature-based CAMHS service and how this may link with A.
C: To consider example physiological mechanisms for potential benefit
D: To reflect on the use of PPIE at all stages of this project
