Support4Resilience at #NSQH2026 in Helsinki! 🇫🇮 Our team shared project results and led a workshop on mental wellbeing and resilience among healthcare workers and caregivers in elderly care. Great to connect, exchange ideas and learn from each other! 💜 #Support4Resilience #Resilience #Healthcare

🤗 As a bonus, here are some photos from yesterday's session at @uji.es

Monthly check-in, shared progress, next steps ahead. Today we held our Support4Resilience WP4 meeting to review Local Learning Collaboratives, cRCT response rates, and align on data collection across countries. Staying connected helps us move forward together 💪

Resilience in healthcare is a shared process. Resilient individuals strengthen organizations, and resilient organizations support individuals. Leadership is what connects the two but gaps remain, especially in how we support informal caregivers. 🔍 support4resilience.eu/how-can-lead...

Leaders play a key role in connecting people and systems in healthcare. By building trust, supporting teams, and ensuring the right resources, they help create the conditions where resilience can grow, both for individuals and organizations.

Resilience in informal caregivers is not just personal. It’s shaped by support, skills, and how care systems work around them. From feeling competent in their role to access to training, support networks, and coordination with professionals, these elements make a real difference.

Individual resilience in healthcare workers is shaped by both personal and workplace factors. From psychological safety and teamwork to leadership support and opportunities to grow, resilience depends on the environment around us.

How can leaders strengthen resilience in elderly care? On World Day for Safety and Health at Work, we explore 134 studies showing how leadership supports both individual and organizational resilience, and where informal caregivers are still overlooked. support4resilience.eu/how-can-lead...

We closed the day with WP4, which focuses on implementing and evaluating the S4R Toolbox in elderly care across six European countries. Today’s session covered intervention design, pilot feedback from Norway, and a 10-minute round for partners to share progress. 🔍

Kicking off the Support4Resilience annual meeting in Turku, Finland! 🙌 We began the session by focusing on WP3. Teams participated in a hands-on workshop simulating real-life use of the S4RToolbox, sparking discussions on improvements and evaluating its current status.

A bit of context: this work is part of WP3, focused on the development of the S4R Toolbox WP3 brings together research, practical experience and feedback to build a tool that is genuinely useful for leaders in elderly care. Step by step, and always grounded in real needs #HorizonEU #EU #Resilience

We wrap up three intense days working on the S4R Toolbox together with colleagues from UCY, UiS and NTNU, hosted by the @eurofue-uji.bsky.social (FUE–UJI) team in Spain. Lots of collaboration, shared learning and valuable feedback. 🙌Thanks to everyone involved!!

Anonymity is essential for healthcare resilience. Workers must feel safe to respond truthfully. The S4R Toolbox implements strict technical safeguards: 🔒 No logins. ⏱️ No shared timestamps. 🚫 No open-text responses. Read more in our latest blog post! shorturl.at/XQFyf

We’ve started the S4R Toolbox pilot in Norway 🙌 Last week, the NTNU team led the first workshop with healthcare leaders, with support from @unistavanger.bsky.social. The group quickly adapted to the toolbox and found it useful. Here’s a glimpse of the session!

We’ve just closed three intense days of work in Stavanger 🇳🇴, where the Support4Resilience team gathered for the kick-off of WP4! Thank you to the whole team for these days of shared effort — now on to the next steps.

At #HCAC2025 in Amman, Carsten Engel (CEO of @isqua.org) presented Support4Resilience, our EU-funded project creating a toolbox to help healthcare leaders strengthen resilience and support caregivers’ wellbeing. 👉 If you want to know more, visit: support4resilience.eu

Last week we joined the National Patient Safety Conference in Norway, where Cecilie Haraldseid shared insights on resilient health systems and on what it takes to recruit and maintain a strong healthcare workforce. Thanks to I trygge hender 24-7 for the great organization.

Caring for the elderly means caring for those who care. At EU-Safety 2025, Dr. Nektaria Pedioti presented how the S4R Toolbox helps care leaders reflect, reorganise and strengthen resilience across their teams to ensure safer, more supportive workplaces.

São Paulo, done✅ This week we joined the 41st ISQua International Conference, sharing what S4R is all about — practical tools, real findings, and conversations on how leaders can make care workplaces healthier and more resilient. Grateful for the exchange and the energy!

Elderly care is only as strong as the people who provide it. On #OlderPersonsDay we highlight the importance of supporting caregivers’ wellbeing — because resilient care teams mean better care for our elders. Learn more at www.support4resilience.eu

Last Friday, Support4Resilience joined the European Researchers’ Night at @uji.es. @eurofue-uji.bsky.social ran an interactive stand where families explored and played, showing that science can be fun and close to everyone. A great reminder of why sharing research matters!! #sciencegts

Every third Thursday = meeting day Today we reviewed progress, upcoming deliverables, the technical report, and planned future conferences In November WP4 will kick off in person, starting the implementation of the S4R Toolbox in elderly care settings across Europe

We’re in Vienna at the @efpc.bsky.social Conference! Maha Kamran and Daniel Adrian Lungu shared first insights from our study on informal caregivers in elderly care. Takeaway: it’s not only about involving caregivers in care, supporting their own capacity matters just as much.

What does person-centred care mean in elderly care homes? It’s about placing residents’ goals and needs at the centre of care — not just routines. 1/2 #Support4Resilience #PersonCentredCare #ElderlyCare

What really shapes the mental wellbeing of aged care workers? We reviewed 89 studies and mapped 64 key factors that influence staff wellbeing. Here’s our new infographic with the main insights 👇 #Support4Resilience #Healthcare #Resilience #MentalHealth #ElderlyCare

Is reducing workload the only way to improve caregiver wellbeing? 🤔 In our final #MythBusters episode, Juana Mari Delgado-Saborit reminds us that emotional support, recognition and team dynamics matter too (among others). 🎥 Watch now and share your thoughts! #Health #Care

If we want quality care, we first need to care for the caregivers. In our latest #MythBusters episode, Catherine Calderwood challenges a belief we still hear too often — that caregiver wellbeing doesn’t impact care quality. 👇Watch the video and reflect with us.

"What works in one country should work in all others." A common myth — but not always true. In episode 3 of our #MythBusters series, Juana Mari Delgado-Saborit explains why context matters when designing support for elderly care workers. 👇Watch below! #Healthcare #Resilience
