Mental Health Response Framework
When someone might be struggling, it's not about having the perfect words. It's about knowing how to respond clearly, calmly and safely. This A3 poster gives you a simple structure to follow in those real moments.
- Six clear steps, from noticing to following up
- What to say to open the conversation, and how to ask directly about suicide
- How to match your response to the level of distress
- Australian crisis and support lines, all in one place
Pin it in the staff room, keep it on your desk, or share it with your team.
