Mental health can be hard for people to talk about. And as a result, they often don’t get the help they need. A mental health first aider acts as an advocate for mental health in the workplace and is a point of contact for anybody who might be suffering. This course will show you how to identify signs and symptoms of common mental-health conditions, and what you need to do to become a mental health first aider.
This course is for everyone because, sadly, mental-health issues are common in every workplace. You’ll see what a mental-health first aider is, what the signs and symptoms are for a range of mental-health conditions, and how a mental-health first aider can provide assistance and guidance for their colleagues.
Please note that this is a short course, and only touches on some of the more common mental-health problems. It will not qualify individuals to diagnose or treat mental ill health; and learners may not be called mental-health first aiders based on completion of this course alone.
You’ll have your own questions and challenges in your business, so we’d love to show you more and answer any questions. We’re excited to show you specific courses you’re interested in, or run you through more of our off the shelf eLearning courses.
