ANDY Kelly
Andy is a specialist Mental Health Nurse and educator with 30+ years of experience in clinical, management and education roles in health, community, mental health, aged care and tertiary education settings. He operates his own business, Face To Face Mental Health Training and Consultancy. He has been a specialist lecturer in clinical and non-clinical tertiary Mental Health qualification courses in hospital, TAFE, RTO and higher education settings. He is a previous winner of a State Nursing Excellence Award and has been twice nominated for the Margaret Tobin Award for Excellence in Mental Health Service.

Andy became a Master level Mental Health First Aid Instructor in June 2012 and a Principal Master Trainer in May 2018. He provides mentorship to other Mental Health First Aid trainers across Australia. Whilst he is sought after in the inpatient and community health and care sectors for his expert knowledge in mental health and client behaviour management, many of Andy’s training clients come from other industry sectors including those traditionally unrelated to the health sector, such as engineering, local government, primary industries, mining, Disability services, transport, local Govt and Legal Practice. Andy is now based in the Northern Rivers area of New South Wales and is available to travel to other locations and venues where terms for fees, travel and accommodation have been negotiated. Andy’s organisation, Face To Face Mental Health Training & Consultancy, conducts Mental Health First Aid training as well as tailored workshops on other mental health related topics. He provides consultancy around client/customer management where this is required. Many workshops can be tailored to your needs.
This live broadcast will include ample Q&A time. It is expected to run for no more than an hour.
