The new NHS England guidance Staying Safe from Suicide; confirms that risk cannot and should not be measured using risk scales, and that any such scales are dangerously misleading. A more helpful and hopeful perspective is to think about the safety of people who might at times feel suicidal. This includes engaging in collaborative safety planning with patients and their family carers. This interactive half day course uses video and audio case studies to examine why safety planning is so important, and explores practical ideas about how meaningful and feasible safety planning can be carried out with family carers.
Price: £234
