Through a blend of instructor-led live sessions and self-learning activities, you will: – Develop practical skills to spot the triggers and signs of mental health issues
- Gain confidence to reassure and support a person in distress
- Learn how to guide them to further support for recovery
Online Mental Health First Aid is made up of both individual learning activities and a series of live sessions hosted on the new MHFA England Online Learning Hub. Individual learning will be based on a combination of videos, workbook activities and reading, which can be done at your own pace in advance of each live session.
