Career Shift – Suicide Prevention for Occupational Rehabilitation
- This is the second year we have had Suicide Prevention for Occupational Rehabilitation training delivered by Carmen. The feedback from the team was that it was exceptional. It was very practical using role plays and interactive activities, while also being very supportive. It was great to get the latest evidence, terminology and at a depth that was ideal for them. I definitely recommend this training beyond other suicide prevention programs given it is tailored to Occupational Rehabilitation circumstances. – Rachael Buckland, Director / Senior Vocational Consultant, Career Shift
