Engaged, motivated care workers are the foundation of high-quality care. Yet findings from recent wellbeing research show that many still feel unheard or disconnected from decision-making in their workplaces.
This week’s MILE Pathway newsletter explores how employers can build positive cultures, strengthen supervision, and champion staff voice — helping to create environments where care workers feel valued, supported, and motivated to stay.
Welcome to another edition of What’s New in Adult Social Care, where we share the latest updates, learning opportunities, and resources for health and social care managers and teams across Sussex.
