[Excerpt from publisher]The purpose of the survey is to look at the attitudes and experiences of NHS staff both nationally, because of the importance of the NHS, and by individual trust, so that employers can review any issues with their own staff and take action. To enable this, we have already provided each NHS trust with its own detailed report. This report outlines the principal findings from the survey for the NHS as a whole, and includes comparisons with the results of previous surveys wherever possible.
