The research
The foundation research on which this presentation is based, ‘Should I stay or should I go? NHS staff retention in the post COVID-19 world: Challenges and prospects’ (ES/V015389/1) , was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, in response to the UKRI open-call for COVID-19 relevant social research in spring 2020, supplemented by follow-on funding from within the health sector.
