What is Mental Health First Aid?
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is the non-professional support offered to a person developing poor mental health, experiencing a worsening of a mental health condition or in a mental health crisis. This can include in a work, home, or community setting.
How will attending an MHFA course help?
The MHFA course teaches people how to spot the early signs of poor mental health, including warning signs of common mental health crises, how to offer and provide initial help, and how to encourage a person to seek appropriate professional treatment and other sources of support.
The aims of MHFA are to:
