"Best Suicide Prevention Training ever!"

5/5

What do you like best about SafeSide Prevention?

I did the Safe Side Prevention training almost a year ago and I have to say it's one of the best suicide prevention trainings I have ever done. They continue to have monthly "office hours" to discuss topics further and send follow-up emails with great reminders and tips weekly. SafeSide Prevention training went beyond just recognizing signs and symptoms, but how to actually talk to someone who may be contemplating suicide or has made attempts.

What do you dislike about SafeSide Prevention?

Some emails come with opening remarks from other users but when you click to read more it doesn't open. And sadly, I'm not able to attend the office hours as much as I would have liked to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SafeSide Prevention solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am on our local Suicide Prevention Coalition and joined after losing my 24 year old son to suicide over 5 1/2 years ago. I work with families regularly in my professional work and have attended other suicide prevention trainings which were mainly about recognizing the signs. SafeSide went way beyond this...not a one and done training. Compassion and passion seem to be the driving force in helping people help others who may be contemplating suicide. Understanding the signs is important, but understanding how to talk with someone without making them feel judged or stigmatized and getting them professional help is just as important. I love that SafeSide is teaching professionals, para-professionals, and anyone willing to learn how to break down barriers. I wish I had taken this several years earlier.
