Webinar On Mental Illness Awareness Skills for Your Workplace

Overview:
1 in 4 people in this country has a diagnosable mental illness. Every family you know has a member who is considered to be “different” or is being treated for a mental condition. In the workplace, you may be called upon to mitigate a crisis situation involving a person with mental illness. If not handled with skill and knowledge, the damage could not only be measured in fixtures or injuries, but dollars it will cost your organization or community for perceived negligence.

This presentation by professional speaker Jim Zalud will enhance your awareness and ability to deal productively, with a mental illness crisis situation. The program will also tell you what to do, and not do. At the end of this program, you will have a basic strategy of how to deal with a mental illness crisis situation, and the resources available to further your depth of understanding, to help you reduce danger or incurring litigation.

Why should you attend: If you don't know how to read and react to a mental illness crisis situation, you may be setting yourself up for harm or litigation. People that are delusional or have PTSD can respond in a very aggressive manner when confronted with situations that ignite their anxieties. This webinar will assist you in not being the match that starts an emotional fire.
