Remedy First Aid Training

🚑 Today we recognise and thank the incredible paramedics who are there for people on what is often one of the hardest days of their lives.

This year's theme, Innovate and Integrate, highlights the power of collaboration. From the first aider who steps in to the paramedics who take over, working together helps achieve the best possible outcomes when every second counts.

Thank you for the care, professionalism and reassurance you provide to patients, families and our communities every single day.

Is your workplace ready to support the men on your team?

This Men's Health Week (15–21 June), we're asking employers and business owners to take a closer look at the blokes who show up every day — often carrying more than they let on.

The numbers matter at work. According to Beyond blue:

· 26% of men admit to delaying seeing their GP for help when they needed it

· Death from su***de amongst men is nearly double the national road toll

· Seven out of fine people who die by su***de everyday are men.

Men aren't struggling any less. They're just less likely to speak up.

That's where you can make a difference. A workplace that encourages early support — starting with something as simple as a GP appointment — can change the way men cope before things reach crisis point.

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training takes it a step further. It gives your people the confidence to notice when a colleague is struggling, start a supportive conversation, and guide them toward help. The difference between a team that hopes someone copes and one that's genuinely prepared.
