Mental Health First Aid (Wales) Refresher

COURSE INTRODUCTION

Our 4-hour mental health first aid refresher course is designed to refresh skills previously learnt on any mental health first aid course. The course also provides a refresh on the role of employers in promoting positive mental health and wellbeing in the workplace.

The Mental Health First Aider shall continue to be the ‘go-to person’ for anyone who is experiencing some form of mental health condition i.e., stress, anxiety or depression.
