Why MHFA?
Mental Health First Aid® Australia offers a range of comprehensive skills based early-intervention courses. MHFA Australia courses are based on guidelines developed through the expert consensus of people with lived experience of mental health problems and mental health professionals.
Prime Effect has qualified MHFA Australia coaches, including Master Instructor David Shillington, who teach participants about the signs and symptoms of mental health literacy and teach the practical skills needed to support someone experiencing a mental health problem, experiencing a worsening of an existing mental health problem or in a mental health crisis until appropriate professional help is received or the crisis resolves.
Course outcomes:
INTERVENE EARLY - identify the warning signs of mental health problems in other adults
PROVIDE SKILLS - learn the skills needed to speak openly and accurately about mental health
RESPOND IN A CRISIS - respond across a range of crisis situations where an adult may be at risk of harm, including at the workplace
REDUCE STIGMA - reduce stigma and increase support for those experiencing and living with mental health problems
