I enjoyed the suicide first aid, as a medic, I feel confident with suicide first aid. I would always look for guidance if i was unsure from a mental health practitioner

Good course in general, but difficult to relate to practice because we are told to stick to a script and not deviate.

As a 111 call handler the content of the course, although very good, was not really relevant to my job role, i feel this could have been condensed and trained in the classroom by trainers. most of the content was aimed at clinical and patient facing employees. i feel a whole 8 hours on 1 subject is very excessive as a training session. will did present the course very well and was very knowledgeable, i just feel i haven't benefitted greatly from 8 hours of course time.

A vital course, not just for use at work, but for using in every day life with friends/family/local community. What could be more important than being there for someone when they are at such a low ebb, and giving them hope.

I was rather nervous and unsure at the start of the course but very quickly I felt reassured and would recommend our tutor Alison very highly.
