You’ll learn to identify the signs and symptoms of common mental health issues in adults and how to provide initial assistance. The course also covers when and where to seek professional help, including crisis situations, and explores research-backed strategies for effective support.

The course integrates case studies tailored to diverse primary health care settings, offering relevant scenarios for every member of the primary health care team.
