Welcome to the Staff Engagement section of our website
Do you ask staff what their suggestions for improvement are? How do you create opportunities for staff to develop solutions to challenges they face daily?
We believe passionately in the knowledge, creativity and commitment of staff. We also believe that because staff have a unique insight into the challenges of their services, they are often best placed to develop practical and sustainable solutions with patients and service users.
If you are interested in the welfare and experience of your service users and staff, in improving clinical outcomes or productivity and cost management, then staff engagement is critical. International research tells us that staff engagement is essential part of improving quality. It is a key driver on the Framework for Improving Quality in our Health Service and is intrinsically linked to the other drivers.

How can we help?
The Staff Engagement Improving Programme works:
- to support leaders to further develop their skills for staff engagement,
- provide guidance on the design of staff engagement interventions as part of your work to improve quality improvement
- partners with services to develop and test methodologies which value the staff voice and encourage creative problem solving for quality improvement, and
shares learning.
We hope our website will be helpful! Also we would love to hear from you if you have any ideas you would like to share with us or you are interested in learning more about ways to engage staff to improve quality.
Best of luck in all your work. We look forward to hearing from you!
