"As a Mental Health First Aider, I'm here to listen, reassure and guide, reminding everyone that no one has to face things alone.”
Meet Saeed, one of our nurses and Mental Health First Aiders at The Wilmslow Hospital. Whether it’s checking in on a colleague who doesn’t seem themselves or being a friendly ear when someone needs to talk, Saeed is there to listen and help people find the right support.
When asked what he most loves about being a Mental Health First Aider, Saeed, who has worked at The Wilmslow Hospital for 2.5 years, said “As a nurse, naturally, I spend a lot of time talking to people in different roles across the hospital. If you see someone who seems to be struggling, we ask if we can help or support them in any way and then connect them with the right support to help them.”
"I see this as a natural extension of what I do, because knowing someone cares can make all the difference.”
