Facilitated by accredited mental health first aid instructors, the two-day course aims to reduce the stigma associated with mental health, improve mental health literacy and spark quality conversations that improve help-seeking behaviour and resilience.
The training identifies the signs and symptoms of mental health issues and provides simple tools that can be used to assist someone experiencing a mental health problem, including how the trained responder can look after themselves throughout the support process.
Participants will receive a certificate valid for three years, a mental health first aid manual and valuable knowledge to support our community.
If you are interested in attending a mental health first aid training course, please contact Council’s Community Development team on 1300 697 372 or email commdev@sdrc.qld.gov.au. Morning tea and lunch are provided.
