Forces charity – Help for Heroes in Scotland which supports veterans, service personnel and their loved ones have developed some resources during Covid-19. These resources include a Field Guide to Self-Care to staff and volunteers which Scottish Care members may find useful at such a stressful and traumatic time for care workers.
You can access this guide here:

The guide was co-produced by, and for, veterans who have experienced trauma and is now being made available to care workers, NHS staff – and anyone else who may be feeling anxious and stressed by the current crisis.
There are further resources on their website on dealing with anxiety, sleep disruption and other issues which may also be useful:
