SFA01-Suicide First Aid Lite
I found the session really helpful, I have never had specific training on this despite two degree's and some clinical experience, and working with those with suicidal thoughts almost on a daily basis. This has gave me the confidence to be able to have more clear, direct and open conversations around suicide not only in my professional role, but also outside of this.
