“The materials and structure of the manual encourage and support the creation of a framework for reflecting and responding at individual, team and organizational levels to develop and utilize a well-being strategy in professional practice and is an important resource that enables students, educationalists, practitioners and managers to not only think about stress, and its impact, but also to begin to explore active change as part of our response.”
