First Aid for Mental Health Half-Day Refresher Course

Overview

This half-day course is available for anyone who has done the adult Mental Health First Aid England two-day MHFA course three years ago and want to renew their qualification for a further three years, but do not feel the need to resit the full two-day course.  This course is also suitable for anyone who has successfully completed in the last three years a level three qualification in MHFA for adults, such as the NUCO FAA Level 3 Award in Supervising First Aid for Mental Health (RQF).
