Summary: Suicides were the third most common sentinel event of 2015. Universal screening is the best strategy to identify patients in general healthcare settings whose suicide risk would otherwise go undetected. This webinar will take a case study approach to bring to light proven methods to reduce patient suicide.
Join Parkland Health and Hospital System expert speakers Kimberly Roaten, PhD, CRC, and Celeste Johnson, DNP, APRN, PMH CNS, as they explain how Parkland became the first in the nation to establish a universal suicide screening program in all its departments.

Roaten and Johnson will discuss processes for implementation, strategies to obtain support, universal screening data, and lessons learned from implementation.
At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to: - Discuss the process for implementation of a hospitalwide suicide screening protocol
- Describe strategies for obtaining nursing and physician stakeholder support for universal suicide screening
- Describe the prevalence data collected from the first two years of a universal screening program
