Spotting and Preventing Suicide

Hey, suicide happens. And one of the contributing factors is that no-one talks about it.

I set out to change that by having a chat with suicide prevention expert Chris Brown on what to do if you're worried about a patient, a colleague or yourself.

What next?

Thanks for making this video Andy - I hope people will watch it and feel more confident to talk openly about suicide with anyone they're worried about.
