As a qualified instructor of Mental Health First aid, I am excited to be able to roll out our newest training course for Intrinsic Mind. Ever since I completed my 2 day MHFA course, I fell in love with the content, the scope and what it is all about, and I am sure you will too. Intrinsic Mind's philosophy is of holistic health and wellness, which not only includes physical health, but mental health and wellness also. Thus, the Mental Health First Aid courses we deliver aligns perfectly with our values and we are thrilled to be able to now offer it to you.

The Standard MHFA Course (2 day course)

The 12-hour Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) course teaches adults (18 years and over) how to provide initial support to adults who are developing a mental illness or experiencing a mental health crisis.
​
Course participants learn about the signs and symptoms of the common and disabling mental health problems, how to provide initial help, where and how to get professional help, what sort of help has been shown by research to be effective, and how to provide first aid in a crisis situation.

Developing mental health problems covered are:
  • Depression
  • Anxiety problems
  • Psychosis
  • Substance use problems
Mental health crisis situations covered are:
  • Suicidal thoughts and behaviours
  • Non-suicidal self-injury (sometimes called deliberate self-harm)
  • Panic attacks
  • Traumatic events
  • Severe effects of drug or alcohol use
  • Severe psychotic states
  • Aggressive behaviours
All MHFA Courses teach how to give the mental health first aid using the MHFA Action Plan ALGEE.

A manual is provided to each participant attending this 12-hour MHFA course and participants who complete this training are eligible to complete an online Accreditation Assessment in order to receive a Mental Health First Aider Certificate of Accreditation valid for 3 years.

 

Why Mental Health First Aid?

​Mental health first aid is the help provided to a person who is developing a mental health problem, or who is in a mental health crisis (e.g., the person is suicidal or has had a traumatic experience). Like physical first aid, mental health first aid is given until the person receives professional help or until the crisis resolves.

Mental health first aid strategies are taught in evidence-based training courses authored by Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) Australia and delivered by accredited MHFA Instructors across the country. Intrinsic Mind offers Standard MHFA Courses and MHFA for Gambling Problems as authored by MHFA Australia, delivered by Instructors who are currently accredited by MHFA Australia.

MHFA is an award winning program and is included in SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidenced-Based Programs and Practices
Evaluations consistently show that MHFA training is associated with improved knowledge of mental illnesses, their treatments and appropriate first aid strategies, and confidence in providing first aid to individuals with mental illness. It is also associated with decreased stigma and an increase in help provided over time.
​

In addition, for the following professionals, if a relevant CPD learning goal can be met by a Mental Health First Aid course, course attendance can be claimed as continuing professional development (CPD) by:
  • Psychologists
  • Social Workers
  • Teachers
  • Dieticians
  • Speech Pathologists
  • Audiologists and audiometrists
  • Lawyers in some states and territories of Australia
  • Orthotists and Prosthetists
