First Aid Vitals

12/23/2025

As another year begins to wind down, we wanted to take a moment to share our sincere thanks for your support. In 2025, we have had the good fortune of meeting hundreds of new people in our first aid classrooms and the pleasure of working with dozens of local companies that continue to count on us, year after year, for their first aid training solutions - and we couldn't be more grateful!! Have a beautiful holiday season everyone.

Stay safe and take good care of you and yours!

It's free...
It's local...
It's available 24/7 in 150+ languages.. and... it's easy to remember:)

Take good care,

This is a course like no other! Whether you'd like to develop new tools to care for others in crisis or simply work on your own self-care strategies, Psychological First Aid is for EVERYONE!!

Each course is tailored to the group in attendance. We develop case studies together and learn from the crisis event within comfortable parameters.
We discuss topics such as stress, loss, grief and trauma and self-reflect in a keepsake workbook to better understand how we cope with such issues. Most importantly, we spend lots of time on self-care!!

Wondering what Psychological First Aid is all about?? Let's break it down..

It's 2 days in a safe space with 2 experienced facilitors leading discussions centered around the effects of stress, loss, trauma, and grief.

It's an opportunity to develope a set of actions and direct responses to help individuals in distress.

It's exploring coping strategies with an emphasis on the importance of self-care for caregivers and individuals dealing with stress.

It's 2 days, focusing on psychosocial well-being, encouraging individuals to care for themselves & others... and those 2 days are happening soon... we hope to see you there.

Wellness Wednesday with NL Health Services ... sounds interesting!

Mindfulness is a skill that can be developed with practice and intention – and it’s a powerful tool for improving mental health.

While mindfulness is often confused with meditation, it’s not about stopping your thoughts or sitting still. It’s about bringing your attention to the present moment and learning to bring awareness to your everyday life.

This upcoming session offers a welcoming space for anyone interested in exploring what mindfulness really means and how it can be used to improve mental health. We invite you to join us for a meaningful and supportive conversation.

To register, email: nlgroups@nlhealthservices.ca

A new journalling format that we're exploring is centered around goal setting and we're exited about trying the S.M.A.R.T. plan!

S - Specific:
Clearly define what you want to achieve.

M - Measurable:
Determine how you will track your progress along the way.

A - Achievable:
Ensure your goals are attainable.

R - Relevant:
Make sure your goals align with your priorities and values.

T - Time-bound:
Set a realistic deadline for achieving your goals.

Whether your goals are personal or professional, we know that a positive and focused mind-set is crucial to achieving them. Maybe a strategy like this one can help you find clarity to make good things happen for you!

New goal - goal setting!! You have to start somewhere 😊
