Suicide Prevention Toolkit for Primary Care Practices

Suicide Prevention Toolkit for Primary Care Practices, a new Resource for Primary Care Practices

The Office of Suicide Prevention, in partnership with the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education, has revamped the 2009 national toolkit. The updated toolkit is now specific for Colorado providers and highlights the services of the Colorado Crisis System. The goal of the toolkit revision was to provide actionable steps and resources to empower practices to directly address suicide prevention within their practice and focuses on identification, risk assessment, safety planning, lethal means counseling, and follow-up care.

The toolkit can be accessed on the www.coosp.org website and will include information on trainings and hard copy orders.

Please share widely with your colleagues.
