How to look after yourself when looking after someone with mental illness.
Margo, a principal master trainer in Mental Health First Aid, has just delivered the two day Standard Mental Health First Aid Certificate Course to Layne Beachley and our group from Awake Academy. We found Margo to be insightful and knowledgeable. She used excellent examples that were very relevant to our work. Her expertise in the mental health area was valuable to our learning and we found her very competent when discussing sensitive topics. We felt emotionally safe throughout the course. Keep the great work going Margo.
