Abstract

QPR is a 1-hour educational program designed to teach professionals as well as lay “gatekeepers” the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to respond. The process follows three steps: (1) Question the person’s desire or intent regarding suicide, (2) Persuade the person to seek and accept help, and (3) Refer the person to appropriate resources.

Learning Objectives

  • Recall facts about suicide and suicide prevention.
  • Identify warning signs of suicide.
  • Demonstrate how to ask someone directly about their desire or intent regarding suicide.
  • Demonstrate verbal and non-verbal skills used to persuade someone who is having thoughts of suicide to seek and accept help.
  • Identify local resources available to help someone who is having thoughts of suicide.
  • Describe how to get help for someone having thoughts of suicide.
