🧵4 🔍 NHS teams should monitor indifference as a red flag; adapting work arrangements may be necessary once it’s detected. 🎓 Managerial training could help spot and support disengaged staff, reducing risk and promoting healthier work cultures. Read the report: www.nhsemployers.org/publications...

🧵3 🧑‍⚕️ Staff who closely identify with their roles are more vulnerable to burnout when indifference is at a higher level. ➡️ When colleagues are trained to recognise indifference, they are more likely to signpost staff towards internal support resources.

🧵2 The report highlights that: 😐 Indifference, more than other expressions, triggers stronger negative reactions (withhold empathy and support) from colleagues. ⚠️ Indifference can signal late-stage burnout, especially the ‘depersonalisation’ phase where emotional detachment sets in.
