A season on consultation-liaison psychiatry would not be complete without an episode on suicide risk assessment!
Dr. Black: "I say without exaggeration that this podcast, in which Dr. Mullen and I discuss suicide risk assessment, is one of the professional things in life that I am most proud of."
WOW! That's quite the claim from one of the world's foremost psychiatrists about a podcast episode. Take a listen and see what you think!
Dr. Tyler Black, a suicidologist and child psychiatrist at British Columbia Children's Hospital, walks through common suicide myths, structuring the suicide risk assessment interview, common motivations for suicide, clinical decision making, best practices for documentation, and what works in preventing suicide.
