Critical Factors is now certified to offer the Mental Health First Aid Program (MHFA).
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) courses teach people simple, practical first aid skills for helping a family member, friend, or co-worker who is experiencing mental health problems.
What Will You Learn?
MHFA courses will teach participants how to listen and respond to someone with a mental health problem, even if they are experiencing a crisis.
Participants will learn how to help someone access the support they might need to successfully manage symptoms. This may include:
– self-help books or websites
– accessing support through their GP, their school, faculty or place of work
– online self-referral
– or support groups.
MFHA courses actively reduce stigma in your community, by providing participants resources to respond appropriately to myths and misunderstandings about mental illness.
