Healthcare Heartbeat are proud to partner with national meal delivery service FoodSt to further support the nutrition and lifestyle of healthcare  and emergency services workers who are at their busiest.

Workplace burnout from increased shifts, overexertion and overtime, due to staff shortages is impacting the lives of shift and healthcare and emergency services workers, Australia‑wide. To alleviate repercussions of this burnout, it is important workers have a balanced and nutritious diet as a means to support their wellbeing and endurance. However, being time‑stricken and depleted by the time they get home and then ready for their next shift, it is not always feasible for workers to create these meals themselves, which is why we have partnered with FoodSt, to make eating healthy a viable option.

FoodSt meals are a convenient and nutritious way to ensure workers have healthy meals to support energy levels, increased workloads, and longer shifts. Their ready‑made meals are also a great way to encourage healthy eating amongst the family, when time is limited for grocery shopping, meal‑planning and cooking.

We’re so appreciative of the partnership we have formed with FoodSt and their generosity towards healthcare and emergency services workers. We couldn’t be more grateful to have FoodSt standing by us, in our journey to help alleviate the burnout and anxiety experienced by this vital workforce.
