Informed by the latest research in suicide prevention, Wesley LifeForce has developed a quality suite of suicide prevention training.
Our Suicide Prevention for Disability Support and Aged Care Work training equips participants with essential skills to recognise and respond to a person living with a disability who may be experiencing mental health distress and who may be at risk of suicide.
This workshop is open to all Disability Support Workers, Aged Care Workers, Support Coordinators, Allied Health professionals, Carers, Management and Frontline Administrative staff, who are often a person’s first point of contact when they are experiencing distress.
Two-hour program overview:
Safe use of language
Australian suicide statistics
Risk factors and protective factors
Warning signs

How to ask about suicide
Safety planning

Partner with us today to give hope to Australians facing heartache and hardship.
