One of the most heartbreaking situations to be in is when a loved one is severely hurt, and we are at a loss for what to do. If someone you deeply care for is having serious mental health concerns, what is the best way to support them?â¯
Amanda Ferstead, mental health program coordinator with Vandal Health Education, is striving to teach people the tools to deal with this question. She has been involved with the nationally recognized Mental Health First Aid program at the University of Idaho since 2018. Every semester, a mental health course is offered to students and faculty/staff separately. The course is free of charge for everyone at the university, and only takes an online sign-up to join. The course covers depression, anxiety, substance abuse and other mental health issues.
