Notes

Primary care providers have an important role to play in suicide prevention.  This toolkit can be used by all primary care providers.  It contains tools, information, and resources to implement state-of-the-art suicide prevention practices and overcome barriers to treating suicidal patients in the primary care setting.  First developed in 2009, the toolkit has been updated to align with Zero Suicide, a nationally recognized framework for providing safer and more comprehensive suicide care in health and behavioral health care settings.  You’ll find assessment guidelines, safety plans, billing tips, sample protocols, and more.  Toolkit hard copies, pocket guides, orientation, and training are available by contacting WICHE MHP at http://www.mentalhealthmail@wiche.edu
