Abstract

The aim of this paper is to briefly examine the contemporary phenomenon of “burnout” within oncology and palliative care. In discussing the suitable interventions to manage stress and avoid burnout, reference will be made to counselling and clinical supervision, but more substantially the paper will report on an innovative subsidised complementary therapy service for staff. The Government's Improving Working Lives Standard will be referred as an initiative that supports the development of supportive services for NHS staff.
