Mental Health First Aid
Due to the increase in awareness of mental health, a mental health first aid course has been developed to help people understand the signs and symptoms of common mental health conditions. The course is designed to teach you how to listen, respond and reassure even in a crisis and potentially prevent a crisis from happening.
Mental Health First Aid teaches about recovery and resiliency – the belief that individuals experiencing these challenges can and do get better, and use their strengths to stay well.
