MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID TRAINING
THE WHAT
This 2 Day Mental Health First Aid course:
-
Is arguably the most comprehensive mental health training, focusing on specific illnesses and signs to look for
-
Equips attendees with better coping tools for themselves and when supporting friends, family, colleagues and the public
-
Just as you have physical first aiders, it creates and empowers mental health first aiders to deliver appropriate initial support before professional medical treatment is available
-
Helps people recognise poor mental health and have difficult conversations honestly and comfortably; employees are supported earlier, before sick leave is taken
-
Upon completion, gives attendees an internationally recognised qualification, lots of supportive resources, and a global community
