A great help to enable us to start and maintain a conversation with a person around any possible suicidal thoughts.

Brilliant training. It has really helped inform my practice as suicide prevention is something I contend with regularly. The role play and speaking the questions out loud was really good to practice.

A very informative course. I am hoping I never have to use what I have learnt but am confident that I would handle the situaton far more competently that I would have done prior to today

Brilliant course for gaining the tools needed for such a difficult situation, to be able to see and discuss a framework for how that conversation would go has increased my confidence in the subject.

For someone not in the health care or mental health care sector, I felt this was a great course to help me feel more confident in dealing with a possible suicide and have better listening, coping and understanding skills

Overall the training was very helpful and Vas is an excellent facilitator. I didn't feel embarrassed or on edge about asking questions or getting things 'wrong'.
