About this Event
Course: Adult MHFA Refresher
Venue: Edgbaston Community Centre, 40 Woodview Drive, Birmingham, B15 2HU
We believe that mental health should be treated equally to physical health – and just like physical first aid, Mental Health First Aid training should be kept up to date.
This four hour MHFA Refresher course will empower you to:
- Keep your knowledge, awareness, and skills of mental health support current
- Update your knowledge of mental health and what influences it
- Practise applying the Mental Health First Aid action plan
- Be a member of the Association of Mental Health First Aiders – England’s first and only membership body of its kind
Once you have completed your MHFA Refresher course, you will be certified for three years and will be invited to become or stay a member of our Association of Mental Health First Aiders – making sure you have everything you need to feel confident when supporting others.
How often should MHFA England skills be refreshed?
Just like physical first aid, we recommend that Mental Health First Aiders and MHFA Champions attend a Refresher course every three years.
If it's time to refresh your skills, book onto an MHFA Refresher course now and feel confident that you are performing your vital role safely.
Please note that the MHFA Refresher is only for people who have completed an Adult Mental Health First Aider, MHFA Champion, or Armed Forces Mental Health First Aider course.
