SFA01-Suicide First Aid Lite Reviews

Charlie T, 13 Sep 2023

Very good entry level course. I have worked for a mental health crisis service so knew most it, but a refresh is always good. I think the course is a great entry level course but something more detailed is likely needed for those that work in mental health

overall the tutor was lovely however a lot needs to be evaluated with these courses and how they are approached, a lot of the information was outdated and very unregulated i.e the questions being asked and the material being shown is very unaware of what others who are taking the course are going through or what have been through as if the people who are taking these courses have never been through anything like suicide or been around it, some of the questions are very triggering and come across from a point of privilege and from a stand point of a group of people who haven't an idea what really happens in the real world and how most of these subjects really go down. in the course it's very one size fits all i.e do these things and it will stop someone committing suicide which in reality isn't the case at all, not a single part of this course took in consideration for people who have had a loved one take their life - it felt as if you didn't prevent it then you failed that person which was one of the first values of your company; to say that all people who want to take their life don't actually want to - is incredibly baseless and filled with blame to the people who couldn't stop someone doing it. overall i didn't partially like the labelling the whole subject of suicide in one box when it's one massive spectrum and should be treated with a lot more attentiveness and care. just a point just to be more aware and less tone deaf.
