Mental Health First Aid Wales Reviews

The scenarios were very useful

I really appreciated the course and will proudly add it to my CV. With the information I will keep a more informed eye on someone in my family whose mentioned suicide in the past. I’ll also be better prepared to support a local gentleman, who recently lost his wife to Covid, who seems very lost. I thought I would share all the help agencies out of my manual with him. The only downside was Day 2 fell in a Sunday, a much needed family day.

I really enjoyed the course. I would think the course would be much better in person.

Thanks both really useful

Although the subject matter can be upsetting, I really enjoyed the course. The 2 seminars and the modules in between were well prepared and I didn't struggle too much to find time to do them. My only only slight niggle was that it was difficult to read all pages of the manual on screen as moving the page up and down to read it when enlarged was not easy. I need to enlarge fonts to read and lost bits of the middle of the page by doing so.

Really enjoyed thankyou

Really informative and well constructed course.

I feel better equipped to deal with issues regarding mental health. I was somewhat expecting some "magic" solutions that would solve all the issues, but it became clear most of the training is basic common sense. I liked the course but the massively wide scope of all the different mental health issues and the ability to spot these i feel is somewhat a minefield and a 2 day training course will struggle to address all of this.

Enjoyed the course electronic interactions, I felt I understood more about the first section - maybe because of family situations I was more comforatable with it. I thought my knowledge would have been good for the second half but I had the realisation that I am not as knowledgable as I thought - but it wa sa good learning experience. The IT flowed well which suprised me, there were other candidates who i found had a lot more knowledge or appeared to. I wouldhave prefered a written copy of the manual.

It would be good to have a hard copy of the manual to look back on and to make your own notes. I think it's worth mentioning that it can be difficult to deliver training online
