Preventing suicide: Involvement of relatives
In addition to the devastating consequences of suicide attempt and suicide contemplation, suicidal behavior also has dramatic consequences for family and loved ones. However, close connections may play an important role in the prevention of suicide if they are capable of aiding the mental health care services with early detection and management.
