Transformative Mixed Evaluation of a Suicide Attempt Recovery Intervention

"Illness Management and Recovery adapted to suicidal behavior (IMR-ACS) is a protocolized clinical intervention in a brief group format aimed at people at risk of suicide. Specifically, people who have had more than two attempts in their lifetime are called repeaters. For its construction, we relied on the Spanish version of the Illness Management and Recovery IMR, developed by the Spanish Nursing Association, adapted to the field of suicidal behavior, taking as a reference the model of personal recovery from suicide attempt proposed by Sokol et al.~The goals of IMR-ACS are to 1) know the warning signs of a suicidal crisis, 2) implement strategies to manage the suicidal crisis, 3) foster social support among peers, 4) formulate goals for recovery from a suicidal crisis, and 5) seek help and make informed decisions in the event of a suicidal crisis.~IMR-ACS is a complementary intervention to the usual treatments."
