CPD Accredited Mental Health First Aid Practitioner Programme
Our groundbreaking CPD Accredited Mental Health First Aid Practitioner Programme is the next-generation of Workplace Mental Health - it’s not just a tick box, but everything you REALLY need to know to fulfil your duty of care to your employees and more.
Delivered over a day, the programme encompasses theory which is brought to life in break out sessions and a worked case study example. Once delegates have completed the classroom based session, they have a quiz to complete in order to attain their status as a CPD-Accredited Mental Health First Aid Practitioner. This remains valid for 3-years before refresher training is required.
Why Is It Important
The World Health Organization has highlighted the importance of prioritising Mental Health just as we do our physical health—now is the time to act!
However, this is more than just “doing the right thing”. The small investment of a day of time for your Mental Health First Aid Practitioners will create a more open and positive culture, where every member of the team can bring their best to work every day, confident in the knowledge that their employer cares about their Mental Health and Wellbeing and is open to discussions about ways to reduce stress levels and create the conditions for excellence in the workplace.
Employers have a fundamental duty of care to create and maintain a mentally safe environment for their employees, so this programme is vital for EVERY organisation that has employees. Apart from helping to prevent psychological harm from the workplace and promoting overall wellbeing, a mentally safe workplace also experiences enhanced employee satisfaction and productivity and reduced absenteeism and staff turnover. This will enable you to serve your clients more effectively.
