Understanding Senior Mental Health Issues
A Four-part educational series made possible through a grant from the Executive Office of Elder AffairsMDPH-Sponsored Suicide Prevention TrainingThis training is to help develop a program for the inner-city schools that allows faculty and staff to become knowledgeable in detecting early recognition of warning signs when a student is in suicidal/homicidal crisis. The sooner warning signs are detected and help sought, the better the outcome of a suicide crisis will be. By implementing a program entitled QPR (Question, Persuade, and Refer), faculty and staff can become empowered and confident in managing students in crisis.
