This training session is designed for veterinary professionals to address the critical issue of suicide awareness within the veterinary profession. Led by experienced trainers from Alliance Plus, the session aims to provide valuable insights and provoke thought on this sensitive topic, encouraging participants to engage in further training and discussions.
What you can expect from this session:
- Understanding Suicide in the Veterinary Profession: The session begins by exploring why suicide awareness is particularly important for veterinary professionals. It acknowledges the unique pressures and challenges faced by vets, which can contribute to mental health struggles and increased suicide risk.
- Increased Awareness: Participants will learn about the importance of recognising early signs of mental distress in themselves and their colleagues. The session emphasises the role of awareness in preventing suicide and encourages a supportive work environment.
- Recognise Warning Signs: Equip participants with the skills to identify risk levels in themselves and others and red flags of behaviour and communication.
- Practical Strategies and Support: The training provides practical strategies for identifying and responding to potential suicide risks. It also covers available resources and support systems that veterinary professionals can access for themselves or others in need.
This training session is part of a broader initiative to promote mental health and well-being in the veterinary field, aiming to reduce the stigma around mental health issues and encourage open, supportive conversations.
