Identify – Systematically identify and assess suicide risk among people receiving care. 4. Engage – Ensure every individual has a pathway to care that is both timely and adequate to meet his or her needs. Include collaborative safety planning and restriction of lethal means. 5. Treat – Use effective, evidence-based treatments that directly target suicidal thoughts and behaviors. 6. Transition – Provide continuous contact and support, especially after acute care. 7. Improve – Apply a data-driven quality improvement approach to inform system changes that will lead to improved patient outcomes and better care for those at risk. |
