A trial of the artificial intelligence (AI) mental health app, Wysa, with staff at the Northamptonshire Healthcare National Health Service (NHS) Foundation Trust and St Andrew’s Healthcare in the UK, found it improved their mental well-being.
The 12-week trial included 350 staff members in the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) wards who used a customised version of the app.
The study was part of the collaboration agreement between NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSEI) Midlands, NHS Midlands, and Lancashire Commissioning Support Unit.
