DBH’s Evidence-Based Practice and Innovation Center (aka EPIC) put out guidance for managing suicidal clients during this pandemic. The Suicide Prevention-Training Implementation Evaluation (SP-TIE) developed a three-page resource guide with tips for treating suicidal individuals remotely, including a template safety plan.
