NCH&C named top employer by bank staff
Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust (NCH&C) has been rated as a top employer, with 89% of bank staff recommending the Trust as a place to work.
The results come from the 2024 NHS Staff Survey of bank workers, which was conducted between September and November last year. The survey provides invaluable insight into the experiences of over 26,000 workers who work across the NHS via an in-house bank.
This remarkable endorsement speaks volumes about NCH&C’s commitment to creating a flexible environment where staff feel valued, supported, and empowered in their roles.
The Trust excelled in several key areas assessed in the survey, achieving top-performing scores in four out of seven People Promise elements that the survey is scored on, including compassion and inclusivity, and reward and recognition.
NCH&C continues to go above and beyond in cultivating an environment that prioritises staff wellbeing, with 75% of bank staff reporting that they receive support for work-life balance.
The trust also reported a top score for the sub-theme of development, highlighting the Trust’s dedication to ensuring staff have access to opportunities that enable them to grow, thrive, and reach their full potential. 73% of bank staff reported that they have opportunities to improve their knowledge and skills, and 54% reported that there were opportunities to develop their career within NCH&C – both top scores compared with other Trusts.
These results are more than just statistics. They demonstrate that NCH&C is not only committed to providing outstanding patient care but also to creating a workplace that inspires, supports, and values its people.
NCH&C’s bank workers provide a high-quality, flexible workforce across all areas of the organisation including nursing, administration, and Allied Health Professionals. They have the opportunity to work in various locations across the trust, gain access to learning and development courses, with flexible working hours to suit different lifestyles.
