It is an NHSE requirement for postgraduate deaneries to provide counselling and wellbeing services to resident doctors and dentists. Counselling and wellbeing support is critical for reducing postgraduate trainee attrition and securing the critical retention of the much-needed future workforce, in alignment with the objectives of the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan.
