Managing suicidal inpatients.
Abstract
Suicidality is the most common and vexing challenge presented by psychiatric inpatients. Although clinicians' ability to predict suicide is limited and suicide may inevitably occur, conscientious assessment of risk, effective distinction among various characteristics of the suicidal crisis, and thoughtful policies and procedures will help keep many patients from fatal outcomes.
