Mental Health First Aid
Around 25 per cent of the UK population will experience a mental health problem at some point in their lives. Most are mild, tend to be short-term and are usually treated successfully with therapy and medication.
But it is still a significant problem. Mental Health First Aid teaches participants how to notice and support individuals who may be experiencing mental health issues or exhibiting the signs of
substance use in a work environment. They are also taught how to connect those people with appropriate help from fellow employees, community resources or healthcare professionals.
We have 3 Levels of First Aid for Mental Health courses, all of which can be studied online or face to face, either virtually or in a public classroom.

Who Should Attend The First Aid For Mental Health Courses?
The courses are suitable for all persons within a workplace but are aimed at those who hold a supervisory/managerial level position and who have responsibility for implementing a positive mental health culture and responsibility for First Aid for Mental Health within an organisation.
Blended Learning
We deliver the 1 day Mental Health First Aid Course as a “blended learning” programme which means that after the classroom course has been delivered, each delegate will be given access to an e-Learning Course which can be studied in their own time. The course takes around 1.5 to 2 hours to complete and delegates will have access to the materials for 12 months. Once the course has been successfully completed, the programme becomes CPD accredited and a CPD certificate will be available to download and print to demonstrate their commitment to Continuous Professional Development. The course carries 2 CPD points.
The course introduces the subject and outlines the benefits of Mental Health first aid and workplace wellness schemes. It then goes on to cover the effects of stress on individuals and teams and discusses how stress and mental health are linked.
It then covers the roles of employers, managers and employees in ensuring that a Mental Health First Aid programme is successful. It concludes with a series of practical examples of how to apply mental health first aid to real situations, how to support employees who are experiencing mental health issues and where to point them for further help and advice
