Individual Peer Support is available to all staff in any role in NHS Fife.
We all face difficult situations from time to time at work or at home that may cause significant distress and emotional impact, leading to a range of different reactions. It can be difficult to share this with our friends or family and may lead to a sense of isolation as we try to cope on our own.
Evidence suggests that we may want to talk with an understanding colleague but often don’t know who to turn to. The Peer Supporters are pleased to offer help in these situations, for further information please click here.

Peer Support Service for social workers – The Social Work Professional Support Service is designed by and for social workers to support, and be supported by, colleagues across the profession. This free and confidential service offers an essential space for social workers at any stage of their career to talk through personal and professional challenges, and to find solutions and ways forward, supported by a volunteer coach who is also a social worker. You can access video or telephone sessions with a trained volunteer coach who understands the challenges faced by the social work community. Social workers who want to support their peers can also volunteer to become coaches themselves and receive training in coaching and mentoring. The service is being funded by the Scottish Government, and delivered by the Scottish Association of Social Work, in partnership with Strengthening Practice, a relational social care training company with a proven history in coaching and support.
