Mental Health First Aid Standard (Virtual)

October 11, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - October 12, 2023 @ 4:30 pm

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is a nationally recognized certification course developed by the Mental Health Commission of Canada.  The course aims to develop the skills of participants in providing help to a person experiencing a mental health and/or substance use problem or crisis. Just like physical first aid is provided until medical treatment can be obtained, MHFA is given until appropriate support is found or until the crisis is resolved.

The virtual course is delivered in a blended learning format.
