Stressors in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including social isolation, worsening mental health, economic insecurity, and disruptions at work and school, have led to concerns that suicide rates will significantly rise. This course provides physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology professionals with information about the issue of suicide, screening and identification strategies, and actions to take if someone screens positive. This course fulfills the 3-hour suicide prevention training requirement for the state of Washington.
