I had the opportunity to attend a suicide first aid course and it was an incredibly valuable experience. The course was thorough, informative and provided me with essential skills to recognise and respond to signs of suicidal thoughts in others.
The instructors were exceptional, knowledgeable and compassionate creating a supportive learning environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and participating in discussions.
One of the most impactful aspects of the course was the practical techniques and strategies we learned for effectively communicating with someone in crisis. Through role-playing exercises and real-life scenarios, I gained confidence in my ability to offer immediate help and support.
Additionally, the course emphasised the importance of self-care and provided resources for ongoing education and support.
Overall, I found the suicide first aid course to be exceptional. It equipped me with the tools I need to potentially make a positive difference in my community. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to be prepared to provide support in moments of need.
