SFA02-Suicide First Aid: Understanding Suicide Intervention Reviews

Very good course. Will recommend. Practical and usable.

I overall was very pleased with the course but still would be nervous about talking to someone about suicidal thoughts. I think perhaps another example, or a more complicated and dramatic scenario, and what to do in those situations would help give confidence in doing the right thing in those situations.

One of the best training days I have done. I really felt comfortable- every element of comfort had been considered and put into place (e.g typing answers in the chat for accessibility etc). Brilliant ground rules which I will be putting into place in my Zoom groups. Frequent breaks were brilliant- allowed time to digest and ensured we didn't 'switch off'. A great amount of discussion and putting learning into practice. Thank you so much for providing this training day!

Very good

Overall a very good course, suicide is something close to us as an organisation and we are always looking to further enhance ourselves in this field. Whether that be staff are clients, I feel the course has helped and I will be looking to embed some of the content I have learnt into my working and personal life :)

Very well planned and informative and thought provoking course which has enabled me to reflect on my practice

I will definitely look to do more in depth courses and would choose this instructor again if available.

Overall, a difficult topic trained well. There were a few technical difficulties for some learners in accessing the digital workbook. I could access it and print it off, but I couldn't save it or type into it, which would have been useful. I did feel that the course should conclude with a specific section on self care for the person who has done the suicide intervention - as, having previously done it, I know it can have a lasting impact and trauma. Although it was discussed when I raised it, I felt it would not have been addressed if I had raised it.

Overall the course was a brilliant in sight to help see the signs needed to help prevent suicide

Really enjoyed the whole day and will take away new learning opportunities and implement into practice
