(Before It's News)


Since 2004, the number of suicides among active-duty service members has increased dramatically. The rise in military suicide rates may be associated with psychological health problems and/or interpersonal and family stressors. Research has suggested that of those who commit suicide many had visited a health care provider within the month prior to their death.
On Sept. 27 from 1 to 2:30 p.m., the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury will host the webinar, “Managing Suicidal Behaviors.”
This 90-minute training event will educate health care providers about their role in identifying and managing suicidal behaviors. This webinar will:
    Review the public health significance of suicide
     Describe screening and assessment methods for identifying suicidal patients
     Identify interventions for managing suicidal behaviors
Continuing education units and continuing medical education credits are available.
