The company has partnered with Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Bath to develop and test its immersive resource hub, ELE-Stress.
Dr Nick Peres, director of digital innovation & transformation, Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust, said: ‘Supporting staff wellbeing is a major priority. This collaboration will help us explore new, evidence-based ways to provide that support, particularly for those returning to work after experiencing stress.'
ELE-Stress has been developed to: deliver preventative mental health support before issues escalate; provide real-time feedback using behavioural and physiological data; offer immersive, clinical interventions tailored to different roles and needs; reduce stigma by supporting users outside of clinical environments; and improve staff retention, reduce workplace stress related absences and burnout, and support workplace thriving
The initiative is part of innovation agency Innovate UK's £3.6m investment in digital therapeutic solutions for mental health.
