Suicide Risk Screener

Download page Download PDF

As mentioned, the Suicide Risk Screener was developed as part of the SAK in response to research that highlighted the need for improved assessment and management of suicide risk in AOD residential rehabilitation programs Australia-wide [543]. It can be used to assist in assessing clients’ level of risk, determining what intervention and management strategies are required, and in developing a safety plan to reduce risk [545]. The Suicide Risk Screener, scorer, and interpretation are located in Appendix Z.
