Mental Health

Delivering training courses in Health & Social Care, First Aid, Moving & Handling, Fire Safety and Food Safety.

At TH Training Solutions, we are specialists in providing training to a wide range of Health and Social Care services.

We are proud to offer high quality Mental Health awareness training, to help staff teams supporting people with mental health issues, to provide the best possible standards of care.

We are experts at helping teams to understand what good care looks like, to support people in ways which reflect their needs and help keep them safe and well.

Our trainers are fully qualified and have years of experience not just training people, but in actually working with adults and children with additional and complex needs. We really understand what good care is and how to implement this successfully.

TH Training Solutions are the ideal choice for training, as we use real life experiences to provide learners with engaging and relevant training courses.

Course Overview

We help care staff at all levels to understand a range of mental health issues and current approaches to diagnosis, support and treatment. Learners will gain the underpinning knowledge required to support people with mental health issues. Our ultimate aim is for the people they support to live a full and meaningful life.

We can also deliver our course to the family members of individuals or groups as well as in a care setting. Speak to a member of our team to discuss how we can tailor our course to meet your specific needs.

On this course you will learn about:

– The up to date concepts of mental health and mental well being and compare the approaches with the recommended ‘recovery’ and ‘self help’ models of mental health

– The ‘continuum’ of mental health and severe mental illness by discussing conditions that are experienced by the people who use the services. These range from depression, anxiety disorders, bi polar affective disorder and schizophrenia

– Current legislation and therapeutic approaches around person centred support and developing resilience, promoting recovery through a whole range of techniques based around ‘best practice’ through research

– Developing a greater understanding of many of the issues experienced by people with mental health problems including hearing voices, self harm and strategies used to reduce distress

– How staff can transfer understanding of recovery techniques into their day to day work

– Planning approaches to break down barriers in the workplace

– How our understanding of the behaviour of individuals influences the support plans and how we can successfully provide support for:
• Self harm and suicidal thoughts
• Psychotic episodes
• The relationship between stress and mental health

Many of the techniques and approaches are based on current understanding of well being. If we have a greater awareness of how we can support well being in our own lives, then staff may use these skills in the workplace and hopefully see improvements in mood, attitudes to mental health symptoms and a reduction in distress and challenging behaviours.
