The NHS People Plan sets out a key ambition to have more people, working differently in a compassionate and inclusive culture in the NHS. Retaining staff is one of the most important factors in ensuring the NHS can deliver quality patient care in the forthcoming years. 

The NHS Long Term Workforce Plan also places a key focus on retention, setting out how the service will address workforce challenges by recruiting and retaining more staff and improving the experience of both staff and patients. 

Leaders and line managers have a vital role to play in this retention challenge, with a responsibility to ensure both new and existing staff are supported and encouraged to remain and thrive in the NHS.
