Why Mental Health First Aid?

Americans are struggling with high levels of emotional distress from the COVID-19 pandemic and our communities need First Aiders who are equipped to identify, understand and respond to signs and symptoms of mental health and addiction issues, as well as care for ourselves. Become a certified First Aider and #BeTheDifference for those struggling with challenges related to COVID-19 – even during times of physical distancing.

This training is a new blended/virtual training that requires 8 hours total to complete. The first portion is a 2 hour self-paced course that must be completed before continuing to the 2nd portion of the scheduled training. The second portion of the training is a 6 hour instructor-led online training.

 

The course will teach you how to apply the ALGEE action plan:

Assess for risk of suicide or harm

Listen non-judgmentally

Give reassurance and information

Encourage appropriate professional help

Encourage self-help and other support strategies
