Supporting people with their emotional health.


What goes on inside our heads can affect our day to day living, and be noticeable by those around us. As a PA, you may well be aware that your employer is having a difficult time but how do different people want their PAs to support them in this situation?
In the final course of this series, we'll be talking about the emotional elements of support.
We'll explore topics such as: how neuromuscular conditions can impact mental health and cognition, the difference between mood and mental illness, and how you can be supportive without intruding where it would be unwelcome.
