Overview – What is KoSiM?

A brief staff physical health intervention delivered by a CNC, dietitian and exercise physiologist.

WHY?

Create a shift in organisational culture towards one that is inclusive of physical health

Enable mental health staff to confidently address the physical health needs of consumers

Give staff an understanding of the role of EPs and dietitians in mental health.

Qualitative feedback

Working with consumers

Family

Personal health improvements‘I now know how to have basic conversations about

food with my clients which in the past I got stuck at’‘My doctor called me in after

my blood tests… He said all of my results had improved and

asked me what I was doing differently!’

Workplace culture

Morale

Productivity

‘The environment changed completely, because there’s more people around taking

care of themselves’

‘I really, really value that NSW Health gave us the

opportunity, a perk in the job is just marvellous…It is, hard

to come by’
