This training manual provides the resources and materials to deliver training to those involved in improving the mental health and well-being of older people, including paid staff, volunteers and informal carers. It includes guidance for trainers, activities and timings, and suggests learning materials and resources. The manual has been developed to support the Level 2 City and Guilds Award, but can also be used to delivery non-accredited learning programmes. The contents are split into five units: the principles and values that underpin the promotion and well-being and mental health with older people; mental well-being, mental health problems and older people; communication and relationships; working within services to promote well-being and mental health with older people; and developing yourself and your role.
