Steve was brilliant; knew exactly how to deliver this potentially very distressing course. Was very insightful, had the ability to keep certain topics light-hearted while stressing the importance, which is an incredibly rare skillset.
The course felt open to discussion whilst providing clear stages and information . I was really happy with the blend of self directed modules and web meetings as they fit into my schedule and allowed flexibility. The instructor Ellender was clear, open and overall a wonderful lead to the course. Defiantly recommend!
Fantastic! This is one of the best courses I have taken in ACT
Steve kept us all interested and engaged from start to finish, he shared a lot of useful information that will be invaluable in our workplace, sometimes in a lighthearted way but also always reinforcing how serious Mental Health First Aid is.
Very good refresher course for me as I have already completed this course 3 years ago.
The course was well presented by steve I took a lot from the course
This is a great introduction course to MHFA and challenges some stereotypes and myths. Only addition I would make is to explain how you would learn more / follow on courses. But hit all the markers I expected and would certainly recommend
The course is quite intense, for the right reasons as mental health can be a sensitive subject for some people. I think i agree with having the course in two parts especially as the online modules need to be done before the course dates. It proves difficult to get these done in short spaces of time due to work demands and not always having the free time to do this outside of working hours.
This course helped me understand how to support someone in mental distress, whether that's talking to someone experiencing a psychotic episode or getting someone with substance issues the help they need. Although it is a heavy subject, I really enjoyed discussing these challenges with my peers and working through the ALGEE plan in different scenarios. I am proud to be a qualified mental health first aider, and while I hope I won't ever have to deal with a mental health crisis, I now feel comfortable in doing so. Helena was a great teacher as she approached the course with care, understanding and no judgement. She invoked great discussions and was very patient throughout. She always listened to what others had to say and encouraged us to share our thoughts. Overall, I'm really glad I took this course and would definitely recommend to others.
