Hospitals offer holiday and bonuses to Covid-weary staff in England Denis Campbell Health policy editor
Hospitals are helping staff recover from the Covid pandemic by giving them extra holiday, bonuses of up to £100, much better food while on duty – and even drama and poetry sessions.
NHS trusts across England are also hiring psychologists, expanding childcare and overhauling rest areas as part of a drive to reward staff for their efforts and improve their working lives.
The moves by hospitals to show their staff how much they appreciate them come amid the growing row over the government’s plan to restrict the NHS England workforce to a pay rise of just 1%, which critics have called “an insult” and “a slap in the face”.

Five police officers are under investigation for manslaughter after the death of a 24-year-old man in police custody earlier this month.
Brian Ringrose, from Milton Keynes, was placed in an induced coma and died in hospital days after he was arrested by Thames Valley police on 27 January.
The Independent Office for Police Conduct said it was investigating the use of a “flexible lift and carry system” (Flacs) used to transport Ringrose to a police van when he was restrained using handcuffs and limb restraints.
The Guardian has requested more information from the National Police Chiefs Council on what Flacs is and how it is used.
