Mental wellbeing is something we all manage on a day-to-day basis. The pressures and demands you face as a doctor, nurse or healthcare professional can make this challenging – more so now than ever before. 

It’s not always easy to notice when your mental wellbeing may be suffering or to know what to do to improve it. So, we’re making it easier for you to assess your own wellbeing and get support if you need it.

Whether you want to lower your stress levels, improve your sleep or reduce burnout, we can help you take positive steps to better mental wellbeing.

We’ve partnered with ICAS International to give you access to immediate practical support. You can talk one-on-one with a licensed counsellor as part of your membership, access a personalised wellness service by downloading the Hub app, and claim 50% off Portal Premium: the award-winning wellbeing app.
