All Hours Suicide Support Service

All Hours Suicide Support Service (formerly called ATAPS Suicide Support Service) is a phone counselling service that supports Primary Health Network clients when their allied health practitioner is not available.

Assessing for risk of suicide

Many health professionals do not regularly encounter clients with suicidal ideation, making it challenging to manage these situations effectively. Proper management of a person at risk of suicide involves a thorough risk assessment followed by appropriate interventions to support client safety.

Completing a risk assessment

Many tools used by health professionals to assess suicide risk rely heavily on verbal information from clients, despite most interpersonal communication being non-verbal. To facilitate a more thorough risk assessment, both verbal and non-verbal cues must be assessed.
