SFA 01 - Suicide First Aid Lite Reviews

This is a valueable and effective course if delivered in its entirety. Unfortunately the symptomology trained are the same reasons why MH services and professionals suggest that they cant treat or assess people in crisis or who are suicidal.

Overall really good and I learnt a lot of new information. Laura was excellent.

The training was well delivered. I had already done the ASSIST and ASK training, so it was a good refresher.

good

i think the the opportunity to do the whole 2 days maybe should have been offered as an option as it will be a part of the 2 days

Virtual training is always difficult and I felt for the trainers as its hard to get people to interact. Probably a better course when its face to face.

For me this was a useful refresher. I am ASIST trained and already had a level of understanding around the subject matter. However, if this had been my first experience of suicide first aid training I may have felt less less satisfied. I'm not sure how well suited it is to online delivery. I hope the face-to-face delivery option returns soon. It needed more space around and in the training - there's a lot to absorb. Simply ticking the box and moving on felt inappropriate at times.

Training is good to build basic knowledge for dealing with people thinking of suicide

A really worthwhile course Virtually splitting into rooms was good Everyone asking the same question not very useful repetitive etc

Would like more balance on both the person who needs help and the person helping them. Places to signpost people to.
