In the immediate aftermath of a suicide attempt, individuals are particularly vulnerable in the days and weeks that follow. The aftercare provided is critical in reducing the risk of re-attempts and suicide deaths. In this video produced by the Suicide Prevention Resource Center, Diana Cortez Yañez, a suicide attempt survivor and experienced consultant, emphasizes the significance of aftercare and outlines ways in which hospitals can assist patients in safely navigating transitions in care. She offers concrete examples, including the implementation of a safety plan for use post-hospitalization, continued communication from the hospital after discharge, and the facilitation of appointments with an outpatient provider.
