Frequently Asked Questions
What content does the mental health first aid poster cover?
This mental health first aid poster covers the six most common mental illnesses, the triggers and signs of mental health problems, UK workplace mental health law, how to support colleagues, self care steps, as well as the essential helpline numbers all compiled by qualified UK health and safety practitioners.
How should I display the mental health first aiders poster in our workplace?
It is recommended to place the MHFA poster in high traffic, staff facing areas, such as break rooms or near first aid kits/stations, for the best level of visibility. Consider using the mental health first aid poster in conjunction with an A3 health and safety poster.
How can my business promote mental wellbeing?
It is important to make sure key staff have some level of training in MHFA techniques and are equipped with knowledge and tools. It can be beneficial to create a workplace culture and safe space that destigmatises open mental health discussions. As well as that, simply promoting kindness, inclusivity, and listening can boost morale and mental health majorly. Finally, including mental health into your workplace risk assessments, training programmes, and management check-ins is incredibly helpful. You can read more about this in our blog post regarding mental first aid.
Do you supply other beneficial items for mental health first aiders?
We have a wide range of MHFA items, including a mental health first aider badge, and a mental health first aider lanyard. As well as this, a personalised hi vis vest can be beneficial in making the trained mental health first aider far more visible to staff and individuals alike.
