What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a safety plan implemented by emergency department nurses for patients who have recently attempted suicide. The safety plan, developed in the United States, consists of a list of personalized strategies to help individuals manage suicidal thoughts. The goal is to determine if this intervention leads to a significant reduction in the likelihood of subsequent suicide attempts within six months compared to standard care. Participants will be included in the Vigilans program, which aims to prevent suicidal recurrence.
