Mental Health First Aid England
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an internationally recognised training course which teaches people how to spot the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and provide help on a first aid basis. It involves two days training and comes with a large, superbly written manual to take away plus other resources. Over 2 million people have taken the course worldwide.
What will I learn?
Learning takes place through a mix of teaching, video clips, exercises, group discussions and activities. MHFA is a practical skills and awareness course designed to give you:
− A deeper understanding of mental health and the factors that can affect people’s wellbeing, including your own
− Practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues
− Confidence to step in, reassure and support a person in distress
− Enhanced interpersonal skills such as non-judgemental listening
− Knowledge to help someone recover their health by guiding them
− How to look after your own mental well-being, remain resilience and get the most out of life.
As part of the new MHFA course, learners now get access to a package of support that includes access to the MHFAider Support App®, exclusive resources and ongoing learning opportunities. These benefits and being part of England’s largest community of MHFAiders® will help them carry out their role confidently and effectively.
Through the app, they will have access to a dedicated 24/7 text service provided by Shout. This is what we believe makes the MHFA course unique.
