New study published in JAMA Network Open finds that emergency department-based intervention measures such as suicide risk screenings, increased access to #pediatric #mentalhealth resources, and follow-up care and safety planning can reduce risks for #youth suicides. According to the study lead author Samaa Kemal, MD, MPH, treating youth not only in the moment of crisis but extending care into the future can have lifesaving impact. https://lnkd.in/gjrm7Ghw Ann & Robert H.
