The Impact of Routine Follow-up Contacts After a Pediatric ED Visit for Youth With Suicide Risk

As part of the standard of care, caregivers of youths who present to the hospital with suicidal risk receive a follow up call approximately 5-10 business days after the hospital discharge to assist them with any challenges they may encounter in accessing mental health care, including medication access. The intervention group will receive a call 5 days after discharge. The non-intervention group will receive a call 10 days after discharge.
