Product Details

This half-day Awareness of First Aid for Mental Health (AFAMH) course provides learners with an understanding of mental health, which helps break down the stigma associated with mental health.

It is reported that this year 1 in 4 of us will suffer from mental health. Therefore, the course is aimed at everyone to provide the skills to recognise someone who may be suffering from mental health and to signpost them to the support they need.

A range of topics are covered including:

What is First Aid for Mental Health?
Breaking down stigma
Identifying common mental health conditions
Signposting to support

The course is facilitated through group and class discussion to involve all candidates and to ensure all candidates are grasping the broad topics ready for the assessment.

Candidates can wear clothing that they feel comfortable with to support their learning and take part in group discussions with other candidates.

Certification
Course handbook
Reminder card and pen
Hand sanitiser

The group price is based on training at your venue for the maximum number of candidates. If you do not have a suitable training venue, we can work with you to arrange a venue near you at an additional cost.

The course includes the First Aid for Mental Health handbook produced by Instructuk Resources Ltd to support the course.

There is no post-course learning for this course.

You can arrange a program of support from Dewi Development Ltd for your staff. This can include ongoing coaching or debrief sessions should one of your employees need to use their skills.

Successful candidates will be issued with an Awareness of First Aid for Mental Health certificate from Dewi Development Ltd.

We can deliver the training at your venue which has a suitable training room or we can support you in arranging a suitable external venue. Training at your venue can save you costs but at the same time risk your staff being distracted by day to day concerns that arise, which may not be suitable as they approach the assessment.

Locations will require:

Room big enough to sit 16 candidates to sit in a horseshoe
Tables for group work and assessment at the end of the day
Projector and screen with computer connection, however, we can provide a projector with laptop

While we will deliver our courses across the country, we focus on supporting local businesses in south Wales from Cardigan to Haverfordwest, Carmarthen, Swansea, Cardiff and Newport.

The course will have one planned break. No refreshments are included when delivered at one of your venues, but tea and coffee will be included when delivered at a venue arranged by ourselves.
