MENTAL HEALTH 101 ENABLES YOUR STAFF TO RECOGNISE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS AND MAKE A FIRST RESPONSE TO HELP THEIR CO-WORKERS.

Good workplace mental health awareness, wellbeing and mindfulness is associated with improved staff engagement, reduced absenteeism, increased productivity, workplace harmony, improved morale and higher job satisfaction. Mental health first aid is the help given to someone developing a mental health issue, such as depression, anxiety, stress or substance misuse or, who is in a mental health crisis.

We aim to provide them with skills and confidence to engage in conversations with those they are concerned about. We explore signs and symptoms of poor mental health and learn how to recognise when someone is struggling and how to respond appropriately.
