Program Description:
Clinicians know all-too-well that suicidal ideation is commonplace in school-aged youth. It is the second leading cause of death for youth ages 12-18. There has been a significant rise in adolescent mental health hospitalization since the start of COVID-19.
Studies have found that adolescent suicidal ideation and attempts may be a reaction to stress or emotional distress and the current climate intensifies these emotions leading to suicidal ideation and attempts. Studies have also found that the rate for suicide attempts have increased for youth in Black, Latinx and Asian/Pacific Islander communities.
This intermediate-level workshop trains clinicians on how to integrate suicide assessments into their practice through a culturally affirming lens. We look at the process of hospitalization and alternatives to hospitalization, and discuss collaborative care with school staff, inpatient clinicians and families.
Clinical Objectives:
- Identify the new levels of suicidal ideation in youth through a culturally affirming lens.
- Conduct current step-by-step training on suicide assessment, hospitalization, reintegration post-hospitalization, and collaborative care with school staff, administration, inpatient clinicians and the family/guardians.
- Normalize conversations about suicide assessment and risk to bring this into daily clinical practice with adolescent patients and families.
