This interactive training has been co-designed to develop the confidence, knowledge and skills of frontline staff to take a holistic and biopsychosocial-focused approach to assessment and care planning.
By the end of the session, participants will:
• understand how it looks and feels when assessments take psychological and social wellbeing into account
• understand the factors that impact on mental health, including an introduction to the biopsychosocial model.
• be more knowledgeable about models of care and the benefits to using them, including person-centred care and holistic care.
• understand the purpose of mental health assessments, what should be included in them and the responsibilities around completing them (considering all aspects of the biopsychosocial model and Care Act).
• have developed their communication skills during assessments and in developing a holistic care plan.
Develop a greater awareness of what mental health is and how Mental Health First Aid Skills can help in a crisis, the different types of mental health issues and an understanding of their effects.
