Mental
Health First Aider – Refresher
If you are a Mental
Health First Aider or MHFA Champion you have skills for life that support you
and the people around you.
We
believe that mental health should be treated equally to physical health – and
just like physical first aid, Mental Health First Aid training should be
kept up to date.
The MHFA

Keep
your awareness of mental health supports current

Update
your knowledge of mental health and what influences it
·
Practice
applying the Mental Health First Aid action plan
