Download or read book Reducing Suicide written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year, about 30,000 people die by suicide in the U.S., and some 650,000 receive emergency treatment after a suicide attempt. Often, those most at risk are the least able to access professional help. Reducing Suicide provides a blueprint for addressing this tragic and costly problem: how we can build an appropriate infrastructure, conduct needed research, and improve our ability to recognize suicide risk and effectively intervene. Rich in data, the book also strikes an intensely personal chord, featuring compelling quotes about people's experience with suicide. The book explores the factors that raise a person's risk of suicide: psychological and biological factors including substance abuse, the link between childhood trauma and later suicide, and the impact of family life, economic status, religion, and other social and cultural conditions. The authors review the effectiveness of existing interventions, including mental health practitioners' ability to assess suicide risk among patients. They present lessons learned from the Air Force suicide prevention program and other prevention initiatives. And they identify barriers to effective research and treatment. This new volume will be of special interest to policy makers, administrators, researchers, practitioners, and journalists working in the field of mental health.

Book excerpt: This handbook examines research on youth suicide, analyzes recent data on suicide among adolescents, and addresses the subject matter as a serious public health concern.

Key areas of coverage include: Early childhood adversity, stress, and developmental pathways of suicide risk. The neurobiology of youth suicide. Suicide, self-harm, and the media. Assessment of youth suicidal behavior with explicit and implicit measures. Suicide-related risk among immigrant, ethnic, and racial minority youth. LGBTQ youth and suicide prevention.

Finally, this book highlights what is currently working well in youth suicide prevention and, just as important, which areas require more attention and support. Key topics include: The neurobiology of suicide in at-risk children and adolescents. The role of machine learning in youth suicide prevention.

Download or read book Implementation of a School Suicide Prevention Program written by Sheila VaNiece Russon and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: In 2001, the U. S. Department of Health and Huan Services, National Strategy for Suicide Prevention, provided the first national program for suicide prevention and its specific call for evidence based practice to guide school based suicide prevention plans. In the 2013, the Utah legislature passed HB 154, Youth Suicide Prevention, requiring school districts and charter schools to implement a youth suicide prevention program for students in grades 7-12. School districts and charter schools shall require each licensed employee to complete two hours of professional development on youth suicide prevention within their license cycle. Evidence Based Practice Framework:The evidence based practice (EBP) model chosen for this scholarly project was the Rosswurm and Larrabee model. The model was selected to guide the process for change to evidence-based practice. The model represents principles of quality improvement, utilization of team-work, and evidence-based translation strategies to promote adoption of a new practice. The model is valuable in the systematic process of integrating evidence into practice at the individual level and served as the best evidence based practice model to provide structure for this project. Methods: The objective of this project was to offer and implementing a training program at a Utah high school that does not currently have a suicide prevention program in place. The project will be evaluated using a pre and post evaluation provided by the Question, Persuade, Refer, Gatekeeper representative. The pre and post evaluation measures the knowledge gained from the workshop. Findings/Results: Ten participants attended the training. The evaluation showed that all ten participants demonstrated an increase in knowledge, favorable attitudes, awareness, and help seeing behavior s following participation in this suicide prevention program. Conclusion/Recommendations: Teaching faculty, staff, and parents an EBP suicide prevention training has shown an increase in confidence to approach and identify a suicidal student. The training has been successful throughout many Utah high schools. It is recommended to combine the QPR Gatekeeper and Hope4Utah high schools. It is recommended to combine the QPR Gatekeeper and Hope4Utah programs due to both programs large success in schools.
