Managing self and own wellbeing

Care Management Matters (CMM) has partnered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) to offer affordable, confidential counselling for Registered Managers in adult social care.

Key information:

• 100% confidential – only you and the counsellor you choose will know you’ve accessed support
• Delivered by trained therapists who understand your role
• One reduced, fixed price for all users
• Choose the time and date that works best for you
• Open to CMM members – membership is free.

Although the counselling is already offered at a reduced rate, care providers can choose to fully or partially fund the support for their Registered Managers. This can have a positive impact on wellbeing, recruitment and retention.

West Sussex Mind has over 50 years of experience in supporting our local community, with a wide range of learning opportunities available via their course catalogue.

This course explores the role of strategising to build resilience to the challenges that many individuals and organisations face today.

Mental health awareness has come a long way in recent years. High profile campaigns with well-known people sharing their stories have all helped to reduce stigma, leading to record numbers of people deciding to ask for help to improve their mental health.

Yet despite improvements in mental health awareness and more and more people feeling comfortable asking for help when they need it, this is not true for everyone.

There is no shame in asking for help. It’s not a sign of weakness, it is a sign of strength.

You might not even know what is wrong (many people don’t), but just one conversation with the Health in Mind team can be hugely helpful, and be the start of a better future.
