Replaces QC2/QC32 EARS and QC28/QC35 YEARS
This training helps you build the skills and confidence to compassionately respond to people experiencing suicidal thoughts and behaviours. Suitable for both new and experienced health workers, you will learn models applicable to caring for people across the lifespan.
Workshop A explores the use of compassion and applying the Chronological Assessment of Suicidal Events (CASE) through simulation. Workshop B practices safety planning, lethal means counselling, the prevention-oriented risk formulation, and a brief intervention for substance use.
These can be attended online or face to face, as two separate half days or one full day.
