There are still places available for the Supporting Students in Crisis course in April. HR have asked me to share as they think Library staff would be perfect candidates to attend.

The module involves the following themes:

Providing practical care and non-intrusive support

• Active listening
• Calming techniques
• Appropriate triage and referral
• Protecting people from further harm
• Assess and address immediate needs and concerns using Te Whare Tapa Whā, a holistic health and wellness model developed by Dr Mason Durie.

Check out the dates, ask your manager and sign up! https://intranet.canterbury.ac.nz/ld/dev_plan/supporting_students/index.shtml
