Prairie Mountain Health is looking to increase the number of people capable of providing first aid to people with an emerging mental health issue or who are in a mental health crisis.
They will be hosting a mental health first aid course on March 4th and 5th at the Veterans Community Hall in Swan River.
The course will give participants a greater recognition of mental health issues, as well as giving them skills and confidence to deal with and help someone with an emerging mental health problem.
The cost to register is $ 125, and you can sign up by contacting Lana Parker at lparker @ pmh - mb . ca or by calling her at 204-638-2118, extension 1713.
