Mental Health First Aid Guidelines
Guiding Our Courses
Our courses are grounded in research and guided by the voice of lived experience. Each course is based on comprehensive guidelines developed through the expert consensus of people with lived experience of mental health problems, mental health carers and mental health professionals.
These guidelines provide an evidence-based framework for providing mental health first aid to someone that may be experiencing a mental health problem.
