Our English Courses
Mental Health First Aid
If someone cuts their finger you grab the first aid kit. But what do you do when someone close to you won’t get out of bed, is feeling progressively worse, or is having a panic attack?
Our English courses
The Mental Health First Aid course teaches you to recognize signs of mental distress and how to start a conversation if you suspect mental health issues in another person. Upon completion of the course you will also know how to act and support in a possible crisis situation and how to refer to appropriate help if needed.
