1 Day Mental Health First Aid Kalgoorlie
THIS COURSE IS NOW FULLY BOOKED!!
This 1 day blended mental health first aid course will teach you how to provide initial support to someone who is experiencing a mental
health crisis or problem. 5 hours e-learn component must be completed prior to attending the face to face session.
Learn the signs & symptoms of common mental health problems in adults, how to provide initial help, where & how to get professional
help, what sort of help has been shown to be effective, and how to provide first aid in a crisis situation.
Goldfields Women's Health Care Centre (GWHCC) is conducting an online client survey to assess your satisfaction with the services you are
using and to ensure we are providing you with the support and services you need. We believe it’s important to collect and hear your
feedback, which will assist us in making improvements and ensuring that we are responsive to your needs.
The survey will be open from 17 March to 30 April 2025 and will take about 10 minutes to complete. It is anonymous—you don’t need to leave
your name, and we won’t know who you are.
We also have paper copies of the client survey at reception (in case you can’t access it online). If you are a young woman under 18, you can
participate with parental consent. Please ask one of our team members for the consent form.
Women who complete the survey have the option to enter into a draw to win a $100 Kal Dollar gift voucher. However, to be in the draw, you
must leave a phone number or email so we can contact you (this will be kept anonymous from the data).
If you have any further enquiries, please speak to the friendly staff at GWHCC. Thank you for working with us to improve our services for
women in our community 😊.

initially came to the Goldfields in 2007 to work for the City of Kalgoorlie Boulder as the Manager responsible for Community Services which

Service, the Illoura Early Childhood Intervention Service and the now Banyule Community Health service. Eric is looking forward to

Carer Friendly Organisation
In September the GWHCC completed Level 1 Accreditation for Carers WA Activate - This is for organisations who are beginning to develop carer friendly workplace policies and practices. We are the first regional organisation to achieve this and we were incredibly proud to
achieve this milestone. The Carers + Employers program defines best practice standards for supporting staff with caring
responsibilities. This may be any employee within your organisation who provides informal support or care to a family member or friend.
CEO of Carers WA Richard Newman came to Kalgoorlie to present the award to President, Kylie McLerie, Support & Carer Coordinator Christine Kupe and CEO Gloria Moyle.
Recognition of Health Justice partnership
Our CEO Gloria Moyle attended the 2024 IPAA WA Achievement Awards last week as our Health - Justice partnership that is funded by
Department of Health was nominated in the "best practice in Health & Well Being. "This partnership is innovative in its
approach—embedding specialist legal services within women’s health centre’s where women already feel safe and supported. This model breaks
down silos between health and legal services, providing an integrated, trauma-informed solution that addresses not just one, but multiple
needs at once. This is the kind of early intervention that can change lives, and it’s both cost-effective and efficient in its ability to
prevent long-term harm" Although we didn't take out the award we are thrilled to be supporting about Goldfield’s women, children, and
families who are at a crossroads, looking for a way forward. I think of the women we serve, the ones whose voices are often unheard, and I
am inspired by the opportunity to make a meaningful difference." Thank you to everyone who has supported this important work, and to those
who will continue to champion women’s health, safety, and access to justice. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of women
and families, not just today, but for generations to come."
"For me, this initiative is not just about policy or systems—it’s about Goldfield’s women, children, and families who are at a
crossroads, looking for a way forward. I think of the women we serve, the ones whose voices are often unheard, and I am inspired by the
opportunity to make a meaningful difference."
"None of this would be possible without the collective effort of all those involved.
Thank you to everyone who has supported this important work, and to those who will continue to champion women’s health, safety,
and access to justice.
Together, we can make a lasting impact on the lives of women and families, not just today, but for generations to
come." Gloria Moyle CEO
