Why most Mental Health First Aid programs fail

Join Paul McGregor, Founder of Everymind, for a practical session designed for HR, Wellbeing and H&S teams who are missing visibility, safety and prevention in their current approach.

Businesses are reviewing their HSE strategy for preventing and reducing ill health caused by work-related stress, and realising they can’t clearly show how Mental Health First Aid is supporting that goal. This is because it’s impossible to operate from a place of prevention, when HR, Wellbeing and H&S teams do not take the right approach to see, manage, and measure what’s happening within it.

The issue isn’t intent. The issue is that Mental Health First Aid was designed as a training programme, not a preventative approach with the structure, safeguards, and ongoing oversight needed to keep it safe and effective over time.

In this session, Paul walks you through The Supporter Method – a 5-step framework designed to embed the safety, structure and measurement your programme needs, so it can genuinely support your wellbeing strategy.

This session is designed for HR, Wellbeing and Health & Safety leads looking to drive meaningful organisational change, but it will be valuable for anyone responsible for improving safety, health and wellbeing in the workplace.
