Effectiveness of stepped versus usual care for mental health service delivery
BACKGROUND: Stepped models of care provide a sequential approach in the treatment of mental health conditions, with the level of care prescribed varying in intensity according to the severity of mental health concern for the individual. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the effectiveness of stepped care compared to usual care for mental health-related clinical outcomes, quality of life, cost-effectiveness and satisfaction across m…
The Paradox of Suicide Prevention
The recognition that we cannot use risk stratification (high, medium, low) to predict suicide or to allocate resources has led to a paradigm shift in suicide prevention efforts. There are challenges in adapting to these new paradigms, including reluctance of clinicians and services to move away from traditional risk categorisations; and conversely, the risk of a pendulum swing in which the focus of care swings from one approach to determining ser…
Wesley LifeForce Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training in Australia
Background and Objective: Wesley Mission LifeForce training is an Australian suicide prevention gatekeeper program which has not been formally evaluated. The aims of this evaluation were to (1) determine the short- and medium- term impacts of the training on worker capabilities (perceived and declarative knowledge), attitudes, and reluctance to intervene measures; and (2) compare the impact of the half and full day workshops on these measures. Me…
Consumer and Carer Perspectives of a Zero Suicide Prevention Program
This study explored the experiences of healthcare consumers who had recently attempted suicide, and their carers, following placement on a Suicide Prevention Pathway based on the Zero Suicide framework. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 10 consumers and 5 carers using a semi-structured interview schedule. Interviews were transcribed and thematic analysis was applied to identify prominent themes and sub-themes. Three interrelated themes w…
Suicidal Presentations to Emergency Departments in a Large Australian Public Health Service over 10 Years
This paper presents trends and characteristics for 32,094 suicidal presentations to two Emergency Departments (EDs) in a large health service in Australia across a 10-year period (2009-2018). Prevalence of annual suicidal presentations and for selected groups of consumers (by sex, age groups, and ethnicity) was determined from a machine learning diagnostic algorithm developed for this purpose and a Bayesian estimation approach. A linear increase …
Suicide in the absence of mental disorder? A review of psychological autopsy studies across countries
BACKGROUND: While numerous past reviews of psychological autopsy (PA) studies have examined the relationship between mental disorder and suicide, there has been little systematic investigation of suicide occurring in the absence of any identifiable psychiatric condition. AIM: This article reviews available literature on the topic by considering Axis I, sub-threshold, mild disorders and personality disorders. METHOD: We conducted a systematic revi…
