About this event
This refresher is perfect for anyone who has completed the 1-day or 2-day Mental Health First Aid course. We recommend every refreshes their skills at least yearly, especially after all of the changes and impacts of the pandemic.
The MHFA Refresher is designed to recap on key learning, develop skills and build confidence, specifically given the current landscape.
The refresher will support MHFAiders by:
- Renewing their skills
- Reviewing the impact of the pandemic on our mental health
- Practising their non-judgemental listening skills
- Updating their knowledge of mental health supports
- Giving the chance to practice applying the Mental Health First Aid action plan
- Understanding how to support others remotely
- Share and learn in a safe environment
Learning takes place through a mix of presentations, group discussions and workshop activities.
The workshop is 4 hours, with 2 short breaks.
Everyone gets a short manual, workbook and certificate.
For individuals: This is a must do course if it has been over a year since you completed the full course.
For organisations: Enabling your Mental Health First Aiders and MHFA Champions to refresh their skills, the same way your physical first aiders do, is a great way to demonstrate your organisation’s commitment to treating mental health and physical health equally. Investing in the course will give you the confidence that your Mental Health First Aiders and MHFA Champions are performing their role safely and effectively.
