I really enjoyed the course. I felt that Jordan + Helena were friendly, informed and approachable. I said in the first seminar that I wanted a structure to helping, and the ALGEE approach has really cemented it.,
A wonderful course. I feel much more confident having a template in place to administer mental health first aid
Both Helena and Jordan was very informative, well presented and great opportunities to have discussion in small group but also the main room. I feel much more confident in having conversations around mental health and suicide.
Great course, instructors were friendly and put you at ease straight away. Would definitely recommend.
I feel so much more confident after going on this course. They should make a shortened version of this and make it mandatory for all staff. There was a lot of things i did not know and just assumed so was great in providing clarity. Course instructors were knowledgable and considerate of others.
I found the course to be extremely informative and dispelled the myths that so often surround mental illness. The course manual is an excellent resource and a 'go to' if at any time I find myself uncertain of how to respond to someone in mental distress. The course trainers were all approachable and presented the material covered very well...thank you!
Very useful and practical content delivered well and at a suitable pace.
Steve was brilliant at delivering the course and ensured everyone was engaged throughout. Scenario based session was a good way to test knowledge and develop the thinking skills required when dealing with patients (persons), by looking outside the box sometimes and providing holistic measures to assess. Description of the ALGEE and continuum will prove vital in assisting a structured approach. Would recommend doing this, as it builds courage and skill sets - you never know when you might need them! Loved ones, friends, neighbours as well as patients, clients etc. Thank you for an insightful look into mental health.
Response: Many thanks Nancy - thank you for input and enthusiasm- it was great to work with you!
This an excellent course. It has built my confidence in supporting someone in distress. Just knowing how to go about supporting someone using ALGEE, is hugely benefical. All the content has been useful. Steve was interesting and engaging. He explained everything well and encouraged questions.
Response: Really pleased that you enjoyed the course Lesley - great to work with you !
