Suicide is the 10th ranking cause of death in the United States. Before attempting to understand the reasons people take their own lives, it will be helpful to identify one’s personal attitudes about suicide. Those who assist or treat suicidal clients must be educated in suicide prevention, comfortable in their role, in touch with their fears when supporting someone who is demonstrating warning signs of suicide, and emotionally prepared if suicide affects them and makes them clinician-survivors. This course provides a practical guide to help healthcare professionals develop an understanding of warning signs, risk factors, population-based prevention, protective factors, and learning assessment skills needed to respond effectively on professional and personal levels. It seeks to meet the requirements of any healthcare professional who wants to have a better understanding of suicide.
This course is an extraction of and should not be taken with, N1658 Death, Dying, and Bereavement, 3rd Edition (30 contact hours).
