The Project

The project involves bringing together Health Care Workers (HCWs) to raise awareness on the importance of the mental wellbeing of HCWs to the quality of health care, provide HCWs with tools to identify and prevent mental health disorders and when to seek help.

They also provide them with both online (virtual support groups and hotlines with psychotherapist) and face-to-face mental support with experienced psychologists and therapists. They directly contact and recruit HCWs using online campaigns on hospital social media groups and during HCWs meetings and seminars, then, bring them into virtual and face to face sessions, with the aim of provide them with additional mental health support.
