For many, work is a major source of stress. 1 in 6 employees experience common mental health problems in the workplace. Businesses can support people with their mental health and create more positive and productive working environments as a result. Unfortunately, despite recent campaigns and advances, there still remains a level of stigma and fear of discrimination around mental health conditions. Employees and school children may feel that mental health conditions will not be greeted with the same compassionate approach as physical illness. This should not be the case and the purpose of this course is to demystify mental health conditions and empower workplaces, friends and family members to provide the support and signposting desperately needed by those struggling with their mental well-being. The HSE have embraced the idea of mental health in the workplace and issued the following guidance ‘First aid needs assessment’ for businesses. They suggest that your first aid needs assessment should also consider whether it is beneficial to have personnel trained to identify and understand symptoms and able to support someone who might be experiencing a mental health issue. to when and how to encourage someone to seek appropriate professional help. In addition, we explore other ways to reduce stress and boost mental health and identify the multitude of self-help and support options available.

However, you will be guided in identifying signs someone might be struggling and we will equip you with a methodology to appropriately support them and a directory of people where you can signpost them for help. It is impossible to cover all eventualities within this course, or to equip you with the knowledge and skills to appropriately diagnose and treat in unpredictable real life situations.

Course Information Who should attend? This course is provided for people who work in the care sector and are required to have knowledge and understanding of Makaton which is a communication tool that has been used for many years to support people with learning / speech difficulties. It is made up of a combination of speech, signs, symbols, gesture and facial expressions. Over the last few years, it has become widely recognised and used within many different services to support communication. Although Makaton is extremely beneficial to support communication, it is also lots of fun to learn too! Children and adults who have difficulty understanding and speaking often become frustrated or withdrawn. By using Makaton, we are helping them to communicate with friend and staff members. For those who have experienced the frustration of being unable to communicate meaningfully or effectively, Makaton really can help. Makaton takes away that frustration and enables individuals to connect with other people and the world around them. This opens up all kinds of possibilities. Course delivery The one-day course will provide an insight into the background of Makaton and who it can benefit. Sessions include discussing commonly asked questions, hints and tips for effective signing and symbol use and how to start using Makaton in everyday situations at work.
