Mental Health First Aid Training - Adults - Two Day
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a practical skills and awareness course that teaches people how to identify, understand and help someone who may be experiencing a mental health issue. MHFA won’t teach you to be a therapist, but it will teach you to listen, reassure and respond, even in a crisis.
You will:
- learn to recognise warning signs of mental ill-health, and develop the skills and confidence to approach and support someone while keeping yourself safe
- learn how to empower someone to access the support they might need for recovery
- gain an understanding of how to support positive wellbeing and tackle stigma in the world around you
This course is certified by MHFA England.
Practitioners will gain:
- a deeper understanding of mental health and the factors that can affect people’s wellbeing, including your own
- practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues
- confidence to step in, reassure and support a person in distress
- enhanced interpersonal skills such as non-judgemental listening
- knowledge to help someone recover their health by guiding them to appropriate support
For those wanting to be a Mental Health First Aider within their workplace
