Mental Health First Aid for First Responders

This nationally recognised course (11244NAT) builds practical skills for understanding mental health and supporting others during crisis situations. While designed with first responders in mind, it is equally valuable for anyone wanting to better recognise challenges and offer effective first‑line support—often delivered by everyday bystanders. The course is streamlined, time‑efficient, and focused on building resilience, wellness, and protective strategies.
