Training Video: Crisis Intervention -- Suicide Assessment

[@uniquelyme6213]

It WAS a demonstration for a CLASS and it was not scripted. The important takeaway is the techniques used to engage someone who is suicidal. Its a TEACHING tool.

This course is very interesting but the roleplay puts me off doing it.

Great video. Very helpful

[@godgamerluna]

These videos peak my anxiety 😂

[@Laura-kg9le]

I don't like the way she intervened. There wasn't a lot of empathy, there was no "turning point" ,no safety plan. There could have been a lot longer conversation to guide the client to the point of helping themselves.

[@meghan6306]

Yeah I agree. She escalated the situation very fast and threatened the client. I would have wanted to know first if their was someone in the client's life that could help keep them safe. Not everyone needs hospitalization.

[@penstudent7377]

is this what happens when someone comes into the clinic as a involuntary psychiatric hold?

[@SuzanThompson]

This is an example of what could happen. The class was at a university in Virginia. Other states may differ.

[@duttonkylee2]

I don't like that she was goingnto be trusted to get herself there

[@musicbykey]

I would not have gone to the hospitalization conversation that quickly. But otherwise, this was pretty helpful.

[@SuzanThompson]

You're right. If this wasn't an abbreviated class demonstration, there would have been more of a lead-in. Glad you found the demo helpful anyway.

@@SuzanThompsonI did. we are learning suicide crisis intervention right now in my course and are about to start role playing exercises in this area. So thanks.
