Oftentimes there are subtle signs that someone is struggling with life, and when these feelings become unbearable, they may start thinking that suicide is their only option. This 3.5 hour (or less) CALM Care program teaches you how to be suicide aware, and recognise when someone may be thinking about ending their life. This online course will help you recognise, the subtle warning signs that are often missed or overlooked, how to approach them, make a connection, and know what to say. Above all, it will equip you, to confidently put your hand up, when someone is signalling they need care. This is an evidence informed, and lived experience informed program.
What you need to know:
- The course consists of 4 lessons, and 33 topics, and 5 videos (see Course Details tab)
- The duration is approximately 3.5 hours (or less).
- This is not a webinar or zoom presentation, it is a self-paced course.
