Recognizing and ManagingPediatric Suicidality Evaluation and Credit: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MedChat49 Target Audience This activity is targeted toward primary care and pediatric healthcare providers and advanced providers. Statement of Need Suicide is a major public health concern and the second leading cause of death for adolescents. Research suggests that many patients that commit suicide had seen a health care provider within two months preceding the event; yet, research also indicates that pediatricians may not feel adequately trained to manage behavioral health complaints, including suicidality. These factors reinforce the need for practitioners to screen patients for imminent suicidal risk. However, even if a screening assessment is utilized routinely, providers may not be fully comfortable managing a patient presenting an identified risk. (Adolescent suicide: what can pediatricians do? Current Opinion; 2020) Objectives 1. At the conclusion of this offering, the participant will be able to: 2. Describe the risk factors for suicidal idealization in the pediatric population.Discuss effective screening tools and implementation recommendations for suicidality. 3. List components of the patient safety plan for the at-risk patient.
