The Mental Health First Aid Course was informative and provided me with hands-on experience in first aid. In the course, I better understood symptoms of different mental disorders and what I could do to help the patients as a first aider. After completing the course, I have confidence to help my family, friends and colleagues when they suffer from mental problems. |

Participating in the Mental Health First Aid Course was fruitful and an eye-opening experience. Not only could I gain more knowledge in spotting the signs of mental health issues, I learnt a myriad of practical skills and appropriate attitudes, such as non-judgmental attitude and body language to assist with any mental health crisis. Besides, a few case scenarios were given to us so that we could discuss and put our knowledge into practice. I could consolidate what I have learnt in these simulation sessions and enhance my confidence to step in, reassure and support a person in distress. All in all, I think that this course is useful as I have recognised the importance of stepping into the shoes of someone who has mental health issues and paying more attention on my own mental health. |

此課程能夠讓我深入了解及認識各種精神健康問題。同時，了解各種精神健康問題所岀現的病徵後，更有助留意自身及身邊家人朋友是否岀現精神健康問題從而作出及早的介入。 隨著面對著社會運動及疫情的時期，岀現精神健康問題的人數上升，令岀現自殺的事件隨之而上升。故此更希望能夠在這時段為社會岀一分力，達致發揮「以生命影響生命」和 「助人自助，助己助人」的精神。最後，此課程十分之值得同學報讀，相信同學們報讀後都一定有所得益。 |
