SFA 02 - Suicide First Aid: Understanding Suicide Intervention Reviews

Steve delivered this course so well. I was able to ask Steve questions confidently and he gave good answers but being sensitive to my experience, opinions and feelings at the same time. Thank you Steve for delivering such a sensitive subject so well.

It was a very interesting training and I learned a lot about the steps that should be taken if ever these type of issue arise in work or in my daily life with others. I was surprise that some steps that may seems extremely uncomfortable are actually the one that we should be taking to ensure we are assisting the person in need at our best.

Despite realising how beneficial the course could be I was not particularly looking forward to it. However the day flew by. Alison was very engaging and clearly immensely experienced. I now feel able to broach the subject of suicide and have strategies and dialogue to practice so I feel more confident and be in a better position to offer support.

Excellent training day. I feel well equipped to deal with young people who are having suicidal thoughts or who intend to end their lives by suicide.

I would just like to Thank Ester for today. It is a tough subject to cover especially through Teams.

Enjoyable, thought provoking and grounded

Thoroughly enjoyed the course. Very informative and was delivered in a light hearted manner.

This has been the most interesting and useful training I have done for a long time. Alison is a fantastic facilitator who kept our attention and interest for the whole time. She kept it buoyant:)

I really enjoyed the session, it was good to complete the training with colleagues from my organisation and it has started some discussions that has already affected how we will be working in the future. We got through a lot of course content but it didn't feel arduous or hard work at any point and we were given time and space to reflect.

This was a small group, which meant everyone had the opportunity to ask questions and share their own experiences. Very thought provoking topic.
