Connect and Respond

Connect and Respond

This post COVID era has seen an increase in anxiety and stress across WA.

Feedback from HR and Managers has been that staff are more stressed, quicker to anger and experiencing higher levels of anxiety than usual.

To support our clients, Relationships Australia WA has developed a one-day workshop directly aimed at giving organisations some practical tools to better support the mental health of their staff.

Course Aims:

Connect and Respond workshops focus on the practical “how to” skills and incorporate three elements:

1) Identify 2) Respond 3) Refer. These are designed to assist someone who may be at risk of mental health decline. It is reassuring for employees, including managers, to know how to respond in a safe way, to assist people without feeling they have to advise, have all the answers or solve the person’s problem.
This is an interactive workshop where participants show exceptional interest and engagement with the learning.

Course focus is on:

  • Current mental health trends in Australia
  • Identifying common signs of decline in mental wellness
  • Exploring self-awareness, empathy and detachment as attributes for helping others
  • How to respond to someone effectively and safely when offering support
  • Knowing your limits and when to refer someone for professional support
  • How to self care in the process

Details:

Numbers: 12 – 18 participants
Duration: 6 hours total delivery time. Start and finish times can be negotiated to fit the organisational need.
Important: this is interactive small group learning with an emphasis put on active, experiential skills practice.
