Mental Health at Sea
Taking care of your mental health is just as vital as maintaining your physical fitness. We all have mental health, and it requires consistent care, just like our physical health does. Mental health challenges can occur at any time and can affect anyone, regardless of their background or role onboard.
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA)
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is an internationally recognised training programme that provides the skills to identify the signs and symptoms of mental ill health and offer initial support.
While MHFA training does not qualify you as a therapist, it functions just like physical first aid - teaching you how to listen, reassure, and respond effectively, even in a crisis.
This comprehensive course equips learners with:
- A deeper understanding of mental health and the various factors influencing personal well-being.
- Practical skills to identify common triggers and signs of mental health issues.
- The confidence to step in, reassure, and support those in distress.
- Enhanced interpersonal skills, with a focus on non-judgemental listening.
- The knowledge to guide someone toward appropriate professional support to aid their recovery.
This vital course is delivered 100% online over two days. We are proud to offer special discounts for seafarers, with prices starting from just £300- an investment that is truly well spent.
