Mental health training that transforms hospital culture
Hospitals are the frontline of a mental health crisis. Like safeguarding, every person has a part to play.
Our one-hour mental health e-learning gives every member of hospital staff — from cleaners to consultants — the context and confidence to respond.

I found out about We Can Talk because I work closely with mental health patients when they come in, I just needed a bit more understanding. I wish I’d done the training a long time
ago.

Why this training is different
1 in 3 hospital staff are unsure their organisation provides safe care for patients in mental health distress. 1 in 4 don’t see mental health as part of their role — but after completing our one-hour training, that group sees the greatest change.
Our training is co-produced and delivered by people with lived experience of mental health crisis in hospital settings — connecting staff emotionally to patient experience in a way that traditional learning cannot.
