Vet Nursing Events

Mental health awareness training


Mental ill-health will affect one in four people over the next 12 months. There are particular issues within the veterinary team, with higher than average rates of suicide, and patterns of distress, anxiety and depression, among other illnesses.

    Could you spot the early warning signs of distress, anxiety or depression in your colleagues?
    Would you feel able to talk to someone experiencing these symptoms?
    Do you understand the legal issues around managing someone with mental ill-health?

If not, then help is on the way with a course from the Mind Matters Initiative. The training aims to help individuals better understand the signs and symptoms of mental ill-health and know how to communicate with people they are concerned about. It’s not a counselling course, but provides basic information about how to manage important first conversations, and understand how to point people to relevant sources of professional help. It also offers tips on stress management and staying well. Courses are open to all members of the veterinary practice team.


Date/Venue:
Saturday 21st October in Glasgow
