We are running a 2 day Cerificated Mental Health First Aid training on 10th and 11th January in Haverfordwest.

WHY TAKE THE COURSE?

Although many people are first aid trained in most settings it is likely you will come across more mental health problems such as depression, anxiety, stress and misuse of alcohol/drug than you would First Aid. Therefore, having the training to deal with Mental Health issues as they appear helps you to understand, support and provide assistance to those who need it. In a mental health crisis situation, the manager or work colleague actions may determine how quickly the person with the problem gets help and/or recovers. The trainer is Reconnect in Nature Director Andrew Dugmore an experienced trainer who delivers training for organisations all over Wales.
