Becky Stoll chats with #SPSM about Centerstone’s #ZeroSuicide journey, 10/30/16 at 8pCT.

Of note, to highlight their commitment to #ZeroSuicide:

“Centerstone joined the Zero Suicide in Health and Behavioral Health Care initiative in 2012 and is actively helping to lead pioneering efforts related to the cause on local, national and global fronts.

“The National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention defines Zero Suicide as “a commitment to suicide prevention in health and behavioral health care systems, and also a specific set of tools and strategies.” Its proposition is that suicide deaths among those under care are preventable, and that zero suicides should be the goal of health systems. Zero Suicide brings a systematic approach to suicide prevention while closing gaps in patient care.

“At Centerstone, in accordance with the Zero Suicide in Health and Behavioral Health Care initiative, suicide prevention measures are “baked into” the roles of staff at all levels and across the continuum of care.”

SPSM will be chatting with Becky Stoll, leading this initiative, on 10/30/16.
