Recommendation 19
19
NHS staff welfare facilities, including food and rest areas, remain inadequate.
Conclusion
The NHS must ensure that all staff have access to adequate facilities. At the minimum, all staff should have access to 24/7 hot food and drinks, free parking, and places to rest, store their belongings, shower and change, and take breaks with colleagues. The NHS should conduct a welfare provision assessment to consider how to move towards this. (Paragraph 78) 60 Workforce: recruitment, training and retention in health and social care
