Suicide risk management

mercredi 4 mars 2020 • Duration 24:30

Suicide is not inevitable. Most people experiencing suicidal thoughts are ambivalent about dying but may be unable to imagine other potential solutions. With the right support people can find their way through a suicidal crisis and recover. In this podcast, Alys Cole-King, Clinical Director 4Mental Health and Consultant Liaison Psychiatrist, Glan Clwyd Hospital, Wales, talks us through managing those with suicidal thoughts, and why we need a paradigm shift in suicide risk assessment that moves away from ‘characterising, predicting, and managing risk’ towards ‘compassion, safeguarding, and safety planning’.
