Why do I feel like a different person since working in the NHS?

Long term pressure changes what you show, what you feel and what you expect of yourself. Those changes accumulate into a shift in identity, which can be understood rather than simply endured.

No. It is education and coaching about identity, adaptation and stability. It does not replace medical or mental health care.

Where do I start if I only have a few minutes?

The free Introduction to AURIS is designed for exactly that. Begin it, and it will still be there when you come back.

If this is you

Identity after the job, for NHS and healthcare staff

You came into healthcare to help people, and most days you still do. But sustained pressure changes a person quietly. If you have caught yourself thinking that you are not who you were when you started, that is worth taking seriously, for your own sake and not just your service's.

What this looks like for you

It is not just tiredness

Rest helps exhaustion. It does not answer the question of who you have become in the role.

Small steps that fit a shift

One short lesson at a time, saved where you stopped, with nothing you have to attend.

Nothing goes on your record

Your account is yours. This is learning, not an occupational health referral.

Where your money goes

Paying for a course or a membership is an investment in yourself first. It also pays for the research this learning is built from, and for free places for people who cannot pay, delivered with Trafford Veterans CIC, Out in the Bay and Red Rose Recovery.

Nobody is asked to pay in order to be supported, and the free Introduction to AURIS stays free.
