PHA Certified Mental Health First Aid Training

About the training:

We're pleased to offer Mental Health First Aid Training, certified by the Public Health Agency. Employers have a duty of care to support their employees, both physically and mentally. In recent years poor mental health has become increasingly prevalent in the workplace and costs £45 billion per year in the UK.

Mental Health First Aid is equivalent to a physical First Aider. It's about equipping a person to spot the signs of a mental health problem, to give employees someone to turn to when they are struggling with their mental health and to assist until appropriate professional treatment is received.

This 2-day course focuses on evidence-based training. Participants will learn how to recognise and deal with crisis situations such as suicidal behaviour, self-harm, panic attacks and acute psychotic behaviour. Also included are more common mental health problems like depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders.

A ll successful participants receive a Mental Health First Aid certificate and access to PHA resources.

“The MHFA training course which I attended has provided me with the practical tools on how to handle any crisis associated with mental health and the key sources of help. My confidence in understanding the different concepts and approaches grew from zero to 10 as we engaged in various activities.”
