Suicide is a major public health problem in the United States and around the world. Suicide claims the lives of over 48,000 americans a year and is one of the leading causes of death in teenagers and young adults according to the NIH. Unfortunately, the impacts of suicide and suicide attempts are even more far-reaching. Screening is a vital step in the prevention of suicide.
The Ask Suicide-Screening Questions (ASQ) is an evidence-based screening tool created by the National Institute of Mental Health approved for use in children 8 and up. If a patient screens positive they should receive a brief suicide assessment from a trained clinician which may be followed up with a more comprehensive mental health evaluation.
