Sharrylen was friendly, polite, and neat. She often went above and beyond to help students understand the material.

Mental health support for first responders should be included in first aid training because exposure to trauma doesn’t end when the patient is handed over.
First responders regularly witness injury, death, and distress, which can have lasting psychological effects if left unaddressed. Teaching basic mental health awareness, coping strategies, and early warning signs helps responders process experiences in a healthy way, reduces burnout and PTSD, and ensures they remain effective, compassionate, and resilient in the long term.

This is from my own experience
