FIRST AID FOR MENTAL HEALTH LEVEL 2 TRAINING COURSE

This course is designed to teach people how to spot the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and provide the initial aid to help point them in the right direction for more qualified help.

Like a traditional first aider would for someone with a physical injury.

The benefit for a business is that having dedicated mental health first aiders, can significantly reduce staff having time off work for mental health reasons,

as identifying issues early, getting the appropriate help, often means the person is less likely to require long time leave.

Saving the business the cost of paying sick leave and covering an employees job whether short or long term, the costs add up.

A happier staff member is also more productive and that helps the overall morale of all the staff and can increase productivity.
