Thank you! Very happy the helpline staff will have opportunities to attend this training in the next week.
The daunting, taboo-laden topic of suicide has been brought into the light. This course entails lots of discussion surrounding what language to use, how to ask the suicide question, and what steps to take next; all conveyed in an easily digestible, articulate manner.
Can not say enough on how informative the course was and the tutor was an expert at putting everyone at ease. Tutor had a fantastic knowledge on the subject.
Liked the emphasis on investing in my own emotional capital when I am well in prep for times when I am not so well. Felt the analogy of the squirrel was very apt in demonstrating the importance of this.
I found the training really good to refresh things I was already using and putting into practice. However being on line is not as useful as face-to-face. I feel if this was a new course for someone who has never done assist before that there would need to be more chances for application and role play. Even though they are difficult but are a a really useful learning tool. But the videos were also very helpful. I would have liked a bit more time for discussion but time was limited. However in the allocated it was a very good course and well presented. Thankyou
The trainer was engaging and respectful given the subject matter. Useful video
Following the course I now feel more able to recognise the signs and be able to give support to someone with suicide thoughts or behaviour.
