The National Centre for Suicide Prevention Education & Training UK CIC Reviews

My objective was to improve my understanding, and I did. Thinking above suicide, I can imagine 3 phases: Phase 1 "on the cliff edge", Phase 2 " the 12 to 24 hours after that", and Phase 3 "the 1 to 365 days after that". Obviously First Aid is about phases 1 and 2, and my specific interest was to kind of audit check what I did or didn't do in Phase 3 (which actually went on for 6 years) in the case of my son who ultimately took his own life. I don't think I could have done much more, short of forced control of all aspects of a 23 year old's life. But what it does highlight is that "best in class" gambling treatment still has a 30% to 50% drop out and relapse rate, which is serious cause for concern. So, this feed back isn't really relevant to this course, but a general point for Phase 3 treatment providers would be to make sure relapse is anticipated, and that a safety plan for it is in place.

Fantastic course, albeit the subject was and is hard going. This was made much easier by the instructor.

A thought provoking course that sits alongside the MHFA well.

excellent training. a good mix of people attending. their different viewpoints were interesting

very good session.

The course was well thought out and timely in the current climate.

I’ve received several suicide awareness trainings and this one is the best.

Thank you for addressing suicide with myself and furthering my knowledge.

A really beneficial training experience which can be used in work and personal life.
