Skill Overview

We are all affected by mental health and are likely to experience mental health problems at different stages of our lives. If you work in health and social care, it is essential to know how to adapt your care for clients experiencing mental health issues. Bringing together all legal requirements and areas of best practice, our comprehensive course covers mental health awareness from all angles, covering important topics such as what mental health is, how to recognise various mental health conditions, the diagnostic process and potential treatments. Most importantly, it will give you knowledge about the support you can offer as a caregiver. After each module you will be asked a set of multiple-choice questions. The answers are marked automatically so you instantly know your score. Every trainee receives a FREE training certificate on completion of the course as evidence for your records. This course has subtitles enabled.
