SCHARR Communicable Research #30 - Dr Emily Wood - New Roles in Mental Health Services to Support Staff

For the latest episode of our podcast series we are joined by Dr Emily Wood. Emily is a senior research fellow within SCHARR and is a mental health nurse researcher working on healthcare workforce and policy research. The focus of Emily’s research is on the factors affecting the retention of staff in NHS services.

In this episode we discuss Emily's retention research and the collaboration between Emily and Professor Damian Hodgson - from the Management School at Sheffield - which explores how new roles in mental health should be introduced to improve care and support staff working in the NHS.
