Brilliant. Great session, I feel far more comfortable approaching people when i feel that they need help or ask whether someone is suicidal. Or even how to go about someone being down, or offer help in different ways. I now know the different options I can give to people in order to help them
Good course, makes me feel confident in dealing with mental health issues in myself and others
Absolutely wonderful instructor! Really helped me grasp my understanding of mental health. Donna is very approachable and has been so helpful. Can’t rate her highly enough! I feel so confident in being a Mental Health First Aider 😀
The course has greatly enhanced my confidence in engaging with individuals experiencing mental health challenges, enabling me to have more meaningful and beneficial conversations. It has empowered me to better understand their needs, avoid potential misunderstandings, and effectively support them without unnecessary discomfort or escalation.
It was very educational, but personally due to my issues with attention span I found the repeated back and forth between videos, scenarios and group work to be quite hard to keep track of.
We didn't quite complete all the tasks because we were a chatty bunch, but I do think the course content was fantastic and could even have been delivered over 3 days which would have let us complete everything. We had an incident recently where someone in our workplace made a disclosure and what was reassuring after taking the course was that everything we did was essentially what we learned on the course - we implemented ALGEE without knowing it! But I feel far better equipped now to deal with any potential incidents arising, and feel really reassured that Steve also said if we wanted to reach out for further guidance that we can. Really well delivered, we were just too chatty!
A very enjoyable and informative course which has given me more confidence when speaking to individuals who are living with mental health issues
Helen was fantastic all around. The course was expertly delivered and she stressed on all the right areas, patiently taking questions, and ensuring we came to a sufficient understanding of the course content. The course was very helpful to highlight the various mental health issues that we may face, and taught me what to expect when dealing with them. I would say I am significantly more confident in being a MHFA, but know that with experience and time I will get better.
