Zero Suicide is a commitment to suicide prevention in health and behavioral health care systems and a framework with a specific set of tools and strategies. It proposes that suicide deaths for individuals under care within health and behavioral health systems are preventable, and that a systematic approach to quality improvement in these settings is both available and necessary to identify suicidal patients and keep them safe. The Zero Suicide Evaluation is designed to assess the implementation and outcomes of SAMHSAâs Zero Suicide Program. Specifically, the Zero Suicide Evaluation will gather information about health system implementation of the Zero Suicide model, including staff training; health care provider training, knowledge, practices, and confidence related to implementing the core elements of the Zero Suicide model; consumer experiences with services provided under the Zero Suicide model; and outcomes related to suicide attempts and deaths.
