We are increasingly aware that our mental health can be just as important as our physical health and with around 25% of the UK population experiencing mental health problems at some point in their lives, it is vital that we have some understanding of this in the workplace.
In our Mental Health First Aid course, we teach learners how to spot individuals who may be experiencing some sort of mental health difficulty as well as how to be on the lookout for anyone exhibiting the signs of substance use in a work environment.
This online mental health course teaches people how to connect with those struggling with their mental health and the role that employers, managers and employees can all take in supporting this.
It will also teach you how to apply mental health first aid to real situations and how to signpost employees to the right places to be able to get further help and advice.
Anyone in any workplace can take on the role of a mental health first aider. This Mental Health First Aid e-learning course is designed to help supervisors or managers who want to start a mental health first aid programme in their workplace.
This course is the perfect way to introduce the subject of mental health first aid, as it is something that learners can study around other areas of their lives.
The flexible learning programme allows you to pick it up at any point that suits you, meaning that it can work around shifts, the children and your social life.
It is also a course which is approved by leading industry bodies such as the IIRSM and CPD and is also endorsed by Gatehouse Awards.
