Our Supervising First Aid for Mental Health (2 Day) course has been developed for supervisors, team leaders, managers and anyone responsible for supporting the wellbeing of employees. The course provides delegates with the knowledge and confidence to recognise common mental health conditions, respond appropriately to colleagues experiencing difficulties, and contribute towards creating a healthier, more supportive working environment.

Delivered by experienced instructors, this practical and engaging course combines current mental health guidance with realistic workplace scenarios to help delegates understand their responsibilities and confidently support others while recognising the limits of their role.
