RATIONALE
Provide a safe environment for
the client.
Physical safety of the client is a
priority. Many common items
and environmental situations
may be used by the client in a
self-destructive manner.
Continually assess the client’s
potential for suicide.
Depressed clients may have a
potential for suicide that may or
may not be expressed and that
may change with time. You
must remain aware of this
suicide potential at all times.
Observe the client closely,
especially under the following
circumstances:
After antidepressant medication
begins to raise the client’s
mood
After any sudden dramatic
behavioral change (sudden
cheerfulness, relief, freedom
from guilt, or giving away
personal belongings)
You must be aware of the
client’s activities at all times
when there is a potential for
suicide or self-injury:
Risk of suicide increases as the
client’s energy level is
increased by medication.
These changes may indicate
that the client has come to a
decision to commit suicide.
Unstructured time on the unit
Risk of suicide increases when
the client’s time is unstructured.
Times when the number of staff
on the unit is limited
Risk of suicide increases when
observation of the client
decreases.
