Recruitment of First Aid for mental health Team

49

As student Dang Du Phuc Loc is no longer with us, her death is a reminder that we should care more for everyone around us, that we should appreciate the person who still with us in order to limit the same heartbreaking situation from happening. Realizing the increasing psychological obstacles in all industries, including students from all grades, SWEC (Safety and Wellness Committee) is cooperating with TSC (Touching Soul Center) – a psycological counselling center – to organize a course on “First Aid for Mental health” – for SWEC’s members as well as everyone who understand the importance of psychological support and suicide prevention. We will organize the selection of capable, enthusiastic students who want to help and respond to psychological crisis situations such as panic attack, suicidal ideation, …

In addition to the training sessions like “The first session”, “Listening skill”, “Consultation for stress management”, and the upcoming “First Aid for Mental health”, TSC also agreed to help out on “Celebration of Life” ceremony in which they did the group therapy in order to placate and support those present on that day. According to her wishes, her body was moved to the Anatomy Department of Ho Chi Minh City Medicine and Pharmacy University. This partly demonstrates the great dream to be devoted all her life for medicine. Loc always loved the medical path in which she could take care of all the people in the world, that’s why anybody who had ever known her can understand how hard she tried to complete this noble and sacred medical path.

By the consent from her family, SWEC held a Celebration of Life ceremony at 9am on June 9, 2019 at Vinh Son Sister Charity Monastery. That was not only and opportunity for the bereaved could share their beautiful memories and feelings before sending them to Loc, but also an opportunity for SWEC to support, calming the painful emotions for those who loved Loc. With the presence of Loc’s family, teachers, and friends, the ceremony was carried out in a warm, solemn and emotional atmosphere.
