How to access 

Atrium Health Mental Health First Aid Certificate Program

Mental Health First Aid is a course that teaches participants how to identify, understand and respond to signs of mental illnesses and substance use disorders. This training gives you the skills you need to reach out and provide the initial help and support to someone who may be developing a mental health challenge. 

To register or for additional information or to schedule for other locations please visit the Atrium Health Mental Health First Aid website or email us at MHFA@atriumhealth.org

Trauma-Informed Care (TIC)

Trauma-Informed Care is about understanding what happened to you, not what's wrong with you.  

Trauma-Informed Care: 

By doing this, we can make sure everyone has better experiences with Advocate Health. 

Trauma-Informed Care is important for all of us. It is not just for patients or certain roles, we all can make sure everyone feels safe, respected, and supported. This approach to care can help us be kind and understanding to others, especially when they're going through tough times. 

Together As One Peer Support Program

The Together As One program offers trauma-informed peer support to help teammates, including physicians, APPs and leaders, handle workplace stress. This initiative aims to create a safer, more supportive environment to reduce burnout and enhance resilience by establishing a peer support network. Through training, participants become Peer Support Ambassadors, offering immediate emotional support and linking to formal services when needed.
