Which action is within the scope of the first aider?

listening, nonjudgmentally to a person with a mental health or substance use challenge

Listening, nonjudgmentally to someone with a mental health or substance use challenge is something a first aider does. Providing this kind of supportive listening creates a safe space, helps the person feel heard, reduces stigma, and encourages them to seek appropriate professional help. A first aider isn’t responsible for diagnosing mental health disorders, deciding on treatments, or telling someone to stop prescribed care. Those steps require trained healthcare or mental health professionals. In practice, focus on being present, validating feelings, assessing safety, offering reassurance, and helping connect the person with appropriate resources or services.
