The workshop is directed at non-mental health specialist staff to give them the confidence to have a conversation about mental health using the Make Every Contact Count framework. This course is an extension of the MECC E-Learning and is adapted to suit the roles of the attendees.
The learning objectives of the course are as follows:
- Overview of what is meant by mental health, mental wellbeing and mental illness, including recognised definitions, models and frameworks.
- Define the MECC approach and explore how this can be applied for mental health
- Develop skills and confidence to engage with parents/carers and Young People about theirs and their children’s mental health and well-being.
- Develop skills to support parents/carers and Young People to understand distressing feelings and experiences.
- Develop awareness of local support services and how to effectively signpost parents/carers and Young people to the appropriate service.
Prior to the course journals will be sent out to be used prior to/during and after the course.
To apply for a space on the training the potential delegate would need to provide their name, contact details including e-mail, their job title and a few details about their role.
