It should be designed so staff are keen to be involved by enabling a behavioural adjustment. With an extremely busy schedule in hand, an approach that requires a lot of external motivation would not be effective and could well just exacerbate stress. It is essential to consider whether staff development can be designed to identify and overcome problems of time and workload, along with improving staff mental wellbeing.</p><h2
