Yesterday was Schizophrenia Awareness Day. We know that schizophrenia can significantly impact people’s lives, and getting back into work can be incredibly challenging.

Delivering a culture of care was at the heart of a workshop facilitated by the The Royal College of Psychiatrists at HPFT’s head office. The Culture of Care Programme is part of NHS England’s Quality Transformation Programme and colleagues from three wards (Forest House, Owl and Wren) attended the first coaching workshop. The aim of NHS England’s Quality Transformation Programme is to improve the culture of inpatient mental health, learning disability and autism wards for service users and staff so that they are safe, therapeutic and equitable places to be cared for, and fulfilling places to work. For the next two years, the Royal College of Psychiatrists will be supporting HPFT with the Culture of Care programme and help to identify areas where they can make changes and improve the culture in their wards, and support them in making those identified changes happen. #MentalHealth #LearningDisabilities #Autism #HPFT #WeAreGreatTogether

Secondary School and Sixth Form students Olivia and Ava have had a productive week, spending time at HPFT for work experience!

Speaking to the different departments made us realise that there’s a lot to HPFT that people don’t see – everyone has such different roles which come together to make everything work! “It was great to hear the service users’ experiences, and hearing about what the Trust does to support them.” #HPFT #WorkExperience
