Mental Health First Aid Training – Hanover

One in five of us will experience a mental health problem by the age of 24.

Do you know how to help?

First Aid is the help given to an injured person before medical treatment can be obtained.  Mental Health First Aid is the help given to someone developing a mental health problem or is experiencing a mental health crisis until appropriate professional treatment is received or until the crisis is resolved.  Mental health problems often first develop during adolescence or early adulthood, with half of all mental disorders beginning by age 14, and 75% beginning by age 24.
