Mental Health First Aid Wales Reviews

I feel so much more confident after going on this course. They should make a shortened version of this and make it mandatory for all staff. There was a lot of things i did not know and just assumed so was great in providing clarity. Course instructors were knowledgable and considerate of others.

I found the course to be extremely informative and dispelled the myths that so often surround mental illness. The course manual is an excellent resource and a 'go to' if at any time I find myself uncertain of how to respond to someone in mental distress. The course trainers were all approachable and presented the material covered very well...thank you!

Very useful and practical content delivered well and at a suitable pace.

Such a worthwhile course to attend, I really liked the delivery of the training from Steve, specifically the style, pace, and variation of presenting. It gave me confidence for how I would instinctively approach a situation and the questions I would ask and formalised this in some cases. This course has given me skills that I will use lifelong if needed. Invaluable. Thank you Steve, it was a pleasure to meet and spend time with you.

Superb highly educational but also made fun and interactive

Steve was brilliant at delivering the course and ensured everyone was engaged throughout. Scenario based session was a good way to test knowledge and develop the thinking skills required when dealing with patients (persons), by looking outside the box sometimes and providing holistic measures to assess. Description of the ALGEE and continuum will prove vital in assisting a structured approach. Would recommend doing this, as it builds courage and skill sets - you never know when you might need them! Loved ones, friends, neighbours as well as patients, clients etc. Thank you for an insightful look into mental health.

This an excellent course. It has built my confidence in supporting someone in distress. Just knowing how to go about supporting someone using ALGEE, is hugely benefical. All the content has been useful. Steve was interesting and engaging. He explained everything well and encouraged questions.

Steve was an excellent trainer. He delivered the content in a really engaging and interesting way - very informative and enjoyable.

What a fantastic 2 days it was!! Lee and Lisa were brilliant, they made me feel very welcome and valued. I have learnt a huge amount of useful skills and the confidence to be able to use them

Steve was very engaging and made the content highly interesting and worthwhile. Most training nowadays is PowerPoint heavy, although Steve used slides he incorporated these into the training seamlessly alongside the conversational content. Steve made the course very enjoyable, considering some of the content being of a difficult nature.
