There was not an overload of information which was good so I feel confident I can absorb and use what I’ve been taught today

Response: Hey Libby, my apologies for how you felt during the training programme. It wasn't the intention for sure. If you have any queries you may write to me and I'll be happy to help / support in the best way I can. Take care.

I think this training is always a good thing to have. it was a good refresher for someone who has experience with dealing with people struggling with suicidal thought/tendencies. I think its such a great course for those who have little experience. I really like some of the phrases that have been used today 'sometimes when people...'. the main thing i have taken is how when someone tells us whats going on, we go back with the feeling. fantastic bit of advice. really enjoyed the course

Whilst I appreciate that time is always constrained on courses such as these, having more time to role play would make the session more realistic and relatable. The phrases used were prescriptive and it would have been good to explore scenarios where a different response might be received. Overall though it was a good course and I felt I learnt much from it.

It was great to have opportunity during the course to talk with other professionals F2F in the field of supporting CYP clients struggling with suicidal thoughts. And helpful to remind ourselves that talking openly and asking direct questions about if someone is thinking about suicide is important. The course is well structured and a good introduction for any professional who comes in contact with CYP having suicidal thoughts, and initiating a conversation with CYP around these thoughts.
