St John Ambulance Cymru’s Post

As someone deeply invested in mental health, both professionally and personally, this Mental Health Awareness Week has been a rollercoaster. It's funny how I usually thrive on talking, researching, and listening to mental health stories, but suddenly, the saturation hits, and it becomes a challenge to push through and find motivation. I often see posts criticising these awareness weeks as mere gimmicks or bandwagon moments, arguing that mental health should be a 365-day conversation. Whilst I somewhat agree, it's also easy to overlook the value of these short bursts of heightened awareness. If just one person sees a post that helps them, then it's a job well done. 👏🏼 To anyone else feeling the fatigue, remember that even in these saturated times, our efforts matter. Let's keep the conversation going, not just this week, but every day. 🌟 Little by little changes a lot! If you're interested in discussing mental health in your workplace beyond just awareness days, we're here to help. SkillBase First Aid offers a free consultation—schedule a session with me and let's talk mental health 365!

Mental health awareness training is essential for creating a supportive and inclusive workplace. By educating employees about mental health, employers can reduce stigma, increase understanding, and encourage individuals to seek help when needed. This training can also help to prevent mental health issues and promote a healthier work environment. #AfyaMentali #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness

Over 46% of US adults experience some form of mental illness in their lifetime, and almost 44 million people in the US experience a mental health crisis each year. Of all people in the US experiencing a mental health disorder in a given year, only 41% receive help. Mental health in the workplace is a serious issue. Yet many organizations do not provide mental health training for employees. #elearning #employeetraining #elearningdevelopment #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthatwork #worklifebalance https://edg.pt/0oZSkS

When EAPs fall short, your team’s mental health suffers. The fix? A two-part strategy that delivers real support: PART 1️⃣ - EAP Education & Promotion Simply offering an Employee Assistance Program isn’t enough. Teams should be regularly reminded of their benefits and encouraged to use them. When employees know how their EAP can help, they’re more likely to utilize it. Plus, regular reminders keep new hires informed, ensuring your entire organization remains in the know. PART 2️⃣ - Additional Mental Health Training Supplementing your EAP with mental health training is the best way to build resilience, raise awareness, and equip employees with practical coping skills. EAPs are invaluable in a crisis, but mental health training proactively empowers your team—protecting wellbeing and morale before they decline. Curious how EAPs and mental health training really compare? We’ve got the answers in our latest blog.
