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.

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.

Designed for workplaces that require increased flexibility in the delivery of training for their staff members, the Blended Mental Health First Aid in the Workplace course is a combination of online (e-Learning) and a half day of follow-on face-to-face training.
The course teaches managers, supervisors and individuals how to assist a co-worker who is developing a mental health problem or experiencing a mental health crisis. However course participants will learn mental health first aid skills that can be applied to help any adult. Course content is tailored to the workplace setting using case-studies, videos and resources tailored to their learning needs. Course participants first complete the interactive self-paced eLearning component that presents an overview of mental health problems and mental health crises. The follow-on face-to-face training allows participants the opportunity to revise and consolidate skills in a group environment, and to address mental health problems in the workplace in more depth. |
