Overview
The Support4Resilience (S4R) project is a research initiative aimed at improving the working conditions of employees, patient safety, and the quality of services in elderly care. By supporting leaders in redesigning working conditions and improving organizational structures, S4R addresses the critical shortage of care workers and rising mental health challenges across Europe.
The goal is to develop, implement, and evaluate an evidence-based digital S4R Toolbox that supports leaders in promoting the resilience and mental health of employees and informal caregivers.
