Gathering of Kindness Celebrations of kindness were recently held across the district to celebrate NSW Health’s Gathering of Kindness. NSW Health’s Gathering of Kindness is celebrated annually during November, using World Kindness Day to continue a conversation about kindness and compassion in healthcare. A variety of events and initiatives were held across the week with a focus on fostering and spreading kindness across the organisation to elevate the human experience for all. The district also launched Kindness Kits during the week, which contained items and information packs that help staff members reduce stress and manage anxiety in the workplace.
NSLHD Consumer and Patient Experience Manager Dr Thelma De Lisser-Howarth said the week allowed staff to celebrate each other and acts of kindness across the district. “Staff across the sites were so engaged and keen to ensure they held events to celebrate their collegiality, compassion, and appreciation of each other,” she said. “This was quite evident in the Tales of Kindness portal that was promoted across the district,” “Our goal was to capture 160 messages to celebrate the impact kindness can have on our staff and NSLHD received 167 kindness messages over the week across all services, which was a great achievement.”
