Competitively priced Mental Health First Aid Training for businesses and communities within Plymouth. Train as a Mental Health First Aider (MHFAider®) and receive three years of certification, plus access to ongoing benefits.
Regardless of one’s background, identity, or employment, anyone may become ill at some point in their lives. Similar to the importance of learning First Aid for injuries or incidents, to prevent further risk to a person’s physical health, Mental Health First Aid is just as significant to prevent further harm to a person’s mental health.
Within Mental Health First Aid (MHFA), you will not learn how to be a therapist, you will be taught how to identify, understand, and help someone experiencing a mental health issue.
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) will also help you improve your listening skills, show reassurance and respond confidently, even when a crisis occurs – or even prevent a crisis from occurring by recognising warning signs of mental illness. You will also develop the skills, and the confidence to approach and support someone while keeping your safety in mind.
Mental Health First Aid will also help you understand how to support positive wellbeing in your workplace and community as well as how to challenge stigma in the wider world we live in.
Please note: All MHFA England Instructor Members are accredited by the Royal Society of Public Health.
You must be 18+ to attend this course.
This course is available only for those living or working within the Plymouth community.
