Description

During the 30 months preceding the pandemic, ER visits for suicidality was about 5.8%; during the pandemic this increased by 55% and was even higher amongst our adolescents. While evidence-based treatment is effective and available, many people do not receive or complete an intervention in many healthcare settings. Of those dying by suicide every day, approximately 45% will have seen their primary care provider within 30 days prior to their death. Broader scale screening of suicide risk outside of behavior health settings is a necessity. This training will provide a brief overview of current suicide statistics, the Zero Suicide model of care, how the State is rolling out 988 and a review of the current resources available throughout the State of Missouri around quick access to care for our adolescents who are identifying at risk of suicide.
