SCOTTISH MENTAL HEALTH FIRST AID

This new course which must be presented by a qualified SMHFA instructor is continuously monitored by Public Health Scotland.  This course must have a minimum of 8 registered candiates before it can run.

PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL TO REQUEST PROVISIONAL DATES

The course does not train people to be mental health workers. It offers basic general information about mental health problems. The knowledge presented and understanding developed in the course helps to remove stigma and fear and to give confidence in approaching a person in distress.

Mental Health First Aid is an initial response to distress and all participants on the course understand that this help is given only until other suitable or professional help can be found.
