Recognise, Relate, Respond is the catch cry of a new programme called MH101. These one day workshops are aimed at giving people the confidence to recognise, relate and respond to people experiencing mental illness.
The workshop looks at what to do and when in order to support clients, colleagues, friends and family members experiencing mental illness. You will even develop approaches for maintaining your own mental wellbeing!
Recognise – good mental health and what you can do to maintain it, as well as the signs of stress or decreasing mental health.
Relate – to what people experiencing mental distress and mental illness may be going through; understand how your reactions may impact on the thoughts, feelings and behaviours of others.
Respond – wisely and appropriately in any situation where a person experiencing mental distress or illness needs support.
The practical MH101 workshops have been developed by Blueprint for Learning with funding from the Ministry of Health. It is a very practical tool and would suit any customer or relationship-based business…which basically means every business, whether the focus is on customers, staff or both!
MH101 workshops are scheduled throughout the year, If you are interested or would like to enrol in one just visit the website or email info@mh101.co.nz
