Just as all responsible workplaces have first aiders for physical crises, it is good practice for mentally healthy workplaces to train mental health first-aiders to support people with their mental health and in a mental health crisis. Mental Health First Aiders also help to promote a culture where people feel able to talk more openly about their mental health.
Participants learn:
- How to identify, understand and support someone who may be experiencing a mental health issue
- Mental health issues and diagnoses in detail
- Detailed information on how to support someone experiencing any one of these issues.
