AI summary of reviews

Attendees value the course’s practical help in making direct conversations about suicide feel more manageable: it builds confidence to recognise warning signs, use appropriate language, ask clear questions and create a safety plan. They describe knowledgeable, compassionate trainers who use discussion, videos, role-play and workbooks to make a difficult subject accessible, engaging and safe. The clear structure, calm pace and useful resources support application in both professional and personal situations, although some would welcome more time for practice.

Quite a disappointing display, felt excluded from sharing throughout and was concerned with the amount of incorrect 'facts' - referring to a suicidal person like a prisoner and someone who suffered with bi-polar as a 'manic depressive'. This course requires an update.

Please don't get me wrong the course was really very good and it built on my knowledge of what 'suicide' looks like for those in crisis. I just wanted to see or hear more from those who have the lived experience of it. Also, What are the stats for Guernsey; what are the current greatest causes, drivers for suicidal ideation on our island? Are there any new developments in psychology and or therapies for the effective treatment of suicidal ideation?

I think the course needs a lot of work if it is to be delivered online, interactions are difficult, technology fails, and with most people not having cameras it is very difficult for the trainer to engage with the students

These sorts of courses should be mandatory, not just for call assessors and supervisors, but all grades of staff both clinical and non-clinical. The ambulance service should be leading the way into implementing these courses to all staff
