I think this training is always a good thing to have. it was a good refresher for someone who has experience with dealing with people struggling with suicidal thought/tendencies. I think its such a great course for those who have little experience. I really like some of the phrases that have been used today 'sometimes when people...'. the main thing i have taken is how when someone tells us whats going on, we go back with the feeling. fantastic bit of advice. really enjoyed the course

Whilst I appreciate that time is always constrained on courses such as these, having more time to role play would make the session more realistic and relatable. The phrases used were prescriptive and it would have been good to explore scenarios where a different response might be received. Overall though it was a good course and I felt I learnt much from it.

I so enjoyed this course, which is strange due to the content. I feel I have learned so much. Katie is excellent at getting points across and keeps you engaged for the whole day.

I really enjoyed the training, it is something I would do as part of my role frequently with patients but was good to relate to home life too. Would like to have info on the course and accreditation prior as could broach this with managers in advance,
