Just as CPR training helps a person with no medical training assist an individual following a heart attack, Mental Health First Aid training helps a person assist someone experiencing a mental health challenge or crisis, such as contemplating suicide. In both situations, the goal is to help support the individual until appropriate professional help arrives.
