I’m Feeling Suicidal, Now What? A Deeper Dive into the Zero Suicide Model and How 988 Can Help
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
This Midwest School Safety Summit is brought by Safe and Sound Schools in partnership with Missouri School Boards’ Association Center for Education Safety.
