From the same survey carried out in 2024, 74% of the 83 respondents said they would not recommend the healthcare provider as a good place to work.
That number dropped to 54% in this latest questionnaire.
Again in the 2024 consultation, nearly 80% did not think there was strong leadership at the highest level of the organisation.
This number fell, albeit more modestly, to 71% for 2025.
And when questioned about whether staff had enough resources to do their jobs, 57% said they did not in this last year – 10% fewer than the year before.
Manx Care said the survey showed “a positive trajectory, with the vast majority of indicators showing improvement”.
But it also acknowledged that some responses had indicated “legacy negative feelings around the creation of Manx Care in 2021”.
It added that participants had also sought “more constructive feedback, more positive role models, more support in their development and more training opportunities”.
Manx Care said these were “all key drivers for last year’s work to develop the clinical leadership model” that was now in place.
It also said respondents were “ready” for the introduction of a “Manx Care professional senate”, which was agreed and endorsed by the Manx Care board in November.
This panel would “create opportunities for staff and their managers to share views and create greater understanding”.
