- According to LivingWorks (www.livingwork...) , a global suicide prevention organization, we are more likely to come in contact with someone in need of suicide intervention than we are to come in contact with someone needing CPR. Why do you think there is less emphasis on suicide prevention and intervention skills compared to other negative health outcomes, from a societal perspective? The Public Health Insight Podcast discusses the levels of suicide prevention (www.thelancet....) (i.e., universal, selective, and indicated) and provides an overview of the various suicide prevention models or frameworks, such as the Socio-Ecological Model (www.cdc.gov/vi...) , Zero Suicide (zerosuicide.ed...) , Mental Health Commission of Canada’s Roots of Hope (www.mentalheal...) , and other community-led models. The conversation concludes with an analysis their strengths and limitations, and other community strategies moving forward to invest in holistic suicide prevention.
If you or someone you know has been thinking about or impacted by suicide, you are not alone. For our listeners in Canada, Crisis Services Canada offers a national suicide prevention hotline which can be reached at 1-833-456-4566 or by text at 45645. Another resource for people who prefer to correspond via text message is the Crisis Text Line (www.crisistext...) - you can get in touch with trained Crisis Counsellors 24/7 by texting ‘CONNECT’ to 686868.
