Mental health first aid training in the workplace
All employers are required legally to provide a recognised first aider in the workplace for physical health. At Red Umbrella, we believe mental ill-health and wellbeing is just as important. That’s why we provide an internationally recognised MHFA course, for designated employees. The course is accredited by the Royal Society for Public Health/Public Health England.
By the end of the training, your designated member of staff will be able to say they are an accredited mental health first aider.
- Recognise the symptoms of mental health issues
- Provide initial help
- Guide a person towards appropriate treatment
Combined with our experience and services, your valued employees will be covered from:
- Identification to assessment, diagnosis, appropriate treatment and aftercare.
- All managed under one umbrella hand-in-hand with your HR, Management, Staff and mental health first aider.
- Should you require bespoke training days, please contact our sales team as we also offer training days to specific requirements
