There has been studies done that indicate people who are considering suicide have been seen in the ED Emergency Department within a short period of time (1 year) prior to their suicide as reported by family members.
These people sometimes were seen for medical reasons and sometimes psychological distress.
It is being considered that working with everyone in EDs to better educate and prepare for assessment and intervention would be beneficial in reducing the number of successful completions.
Please learn and read more about suicide prevention.
