The HOSMS Health and Wellbeing Team consists of 4 Coaches and 1 Social Prescriber.
Health and Wellbeing Coaches use a goal setting approach to provide support and increase motivation to patients struggling with their health and wellbeing. They can offer up to 6 sessions lasting 45 minutes each. The aim is to equip the patient with various tools and techniques to help manage their own health and wellbeing. The coaches use a holistic approach, looking at different areas within your life that could be affecting your mental health and wellbeing.
The Social Prescriber can support the patient to access community services, support groups, advice, and information to help with mental health and wellbeing. They will work alongside the patient to support them individually in the first instance, with the aim of finding suitable services which benefit and support the patient.
