🌍💚 Today is World Mental Health Day—a reminder to prioritise our mental well-being and check in with ourselves and those around us. Mental health first aid is just as vital as physical first aid. Knowing how to support someone in distress can make a world of difference. Whether it's helping a friend experiencing anxiety, a colleague going through a difficult time, or simply being a compassionate listener, the skills we learn through first aid courses can apply to mental health too. 💚 #WorldMentalHealthDay #BreakTheStigma #MentalHealthMatters #SupportEachOther

Maintaining Boundaries in the MHFAider® Role The role of a Mental Health First Aider (MHFAider®) is incredibly important, offering initial support to individuals experiencing mental health issues. However, maintaining boundaries is crucial to ensure both the well-being of the MHFAider® and the person receiving support. Let's explore where you should set your boundaries to be effective and supportive while protecting your own mental health. Understanding the MHFAider® Role Firstly, it’s essential to understand what being an MHFAider® entails. Mental Health First Aid courses are designed to teach you how to recognize the signs of mental health issues, provide initial help, and guide a person towards appropriate professional help. You are not a therapist, counselor, or diagnostician. Your role is to offer immediate support and encourage professional help when needed.
