For anyone interested in how to create a care plan that is truly centred on the individual, read our good practice guide. It was written for nurses, medical and care staff, after a wide consultation. Find it here: bit.ly/3Hx7pAE

Well said @KirstenSDF of @SDFnews 🙌 We can't delay on #harmreductionnow and #drugconsumptionrooms now and, at the same time, working towards re-constructing a more live-able future society.
Kirsten Horsburgh of the Scottish Drugs Forum says action on drug deaths has been too slow and says Scotland should open drug consumption rooms now. "We need to be making bold, brave changes...rather than looking back and regretting what we could've and should've done."

How to change suicide risk management in clinical care after recent @NCISH_UK studies? •routine enquiry re online risk, dom violence, anniversaries •enquiry about opiates in bathroom cabinet •stop using risk ass tools •stop excluding suicidal patients on grounds of capacity.

In our new report @NCISH_UK, we show suicides by patients diagnosed with personality disorder to be rising. Many have multiple risk factors but downgrading of risk persists because of spurious beliefs re capacity, impulsiveness, “behaviour”. These ideas are costing lives.

Plea to journalists writing about suicide. 6000 people/yr die by suicide in UK. 6000 families devastated. Suicide is not a catchy headline or way to score political points. Check figures, think about language, take advice, be responsible - what you write can add to risk.
