ensa is the Swiss version of the Australian Mental Health First Aid programme

It is important to recognise and respond to someone who is experiencing a mental health issue, because the earlier a problem is detected and treated, the better.
First aiders are taught to recognise warning signs of mental ill health and to listen, reassure and respond, even in a crisis.

Every fourth employee shows signs of mental health problems. Particularly in the workplace, these can be recognised early and colleagues can be encouraged to seek professional help.
Early intervention improves the prognosis for recovery, shortens the length of suffering and prevents long-term absences.
