a
short,
clearly
written
book
that

Written

trainee
psychiatrists

health
professionals
throughout

for
all
mental
health
professionals
who
come
into
contact
with
patients
who
present
with
suicide
potential,
i.e.
all
mental
health
professionals,
as
well
as
general
health
professionals
who
are
often
the
first
point
of
contact
for
a
suicidal
patient.The
book
opens
with
a
review
of
the
epidemiology,
risk
factors
and
associated
aspects
of
suicide.
It
then
presents
two
assessment
tools:
The
Tool
for
Assessment
of
Suicide
Risk
(TASR)
provides
instruction
on
how
to
use
it
appropriately
in
the
clinic.
The
Suicide
Risk
Assessment
Guide
(SRAG)
acts
as
a
self-study
program
to
asess
clinical
evaluation
skills.
Both
tools
were
created
for
use
in
the
authors’
own
practice
and
are
now
successfully
taught
to
and
used
by
health
professionals
around
the
world.
Refined
through
actual
experience,
these
proven
tools
help
assess
and
evaluate
patients
with
confidence.Case
vignettes
allow
the
reader
to
practice
using
the
information
they
have
learned
from
the
book.Throughout
the
book,
bulleted
lists,
tables
and
flowcharts
effectively
describe
how
to
use
the
many
factors
to
assess
the
risk
of
suicide
in
an
individual patient.
