A System of Safety (SOS)

Suicide risk screening will be implemented as the standard of care for all patients who present for treatment.

Suicide screen-positive patients who are to be discharged from the hospital will receive personalized safety planning by a mental health clinician or nurse that includes means restriction counseling as a step in the safety plan.

Include post-acute telephone phone call follow-up to foster engagement with outpatient care and problem solving within 24 hours of discharge

The Interventions will be implemented using Lean performance improvement strategies
