Join this interactive and insightful workshop exploring the Role of a Mental Health Nurse!

The session will provide a deep dive into the essential work mental health nurses do to support individuals facing mental health challenges. From crisis intervention to managing long-term conditions like depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, mental health nurses are at the heart of compassionate, person-centred care.

Through engaging discussions, real-life case scenarios, and practical examples, attendees will gain a clear understanding of how mental health nurses assess, plan, and deliver care. Discover how they advocate for patients, promote recovery, and work alongside families and healthcare professionals to improve mental well-being.

Join us for hands-on activities such as:
* Create your own 'brain in a jar' to demonstrate the swirling thoughts & emotions we experience when we're overwhelmed, and how mental health nurses help calm them.

* Become a 'stress detective' and take real-life readings that show how our bodies react to different scenarios, seeing how deep breathing and movement can help us self-regulate.

* Find the right service by matching real-life scenarios to the professionals best suited to help, whilst gaining an insight into the breadth of roles and services across in health & social care.

* Make your own 'mental health toolkit' and see how mental health nurses support people to build toolkits and access the support they need.

This workshop is perfect for anyone considering a career in mental health nursing, students, or those interested in mental health care.

Come and learn how mental health nurses make a real difference every day!

*Year 11 students & their families are very welcome to join this workshop!*
