Suunnittele ja suojaa: Turvallisuussuunnittelu teineille maaseudun ensiapuosastoissa

tiistai 29. syyskuuta 2026 päivittänyt: JoAnna K. Leyenaar, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center

Kulttuurisesti herkän turvallisuussuunnittelun kehittäminen ja toteuttaminen itsemurhariskin vähentämiseksi maaseudun ensiapupoliklinikoilla hoidetta etsivissä nuorissa

The goal of this observational study is to determine whether implementing a culturally sensitive, tablet-based safety planning program called Plan & Protect (P&P) within rural emergency departments can improve home safety and reduce suicide risk in adolescents presenting to the emergency department with suicide-related concerns.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Will implementing P&P increase caregiver-reported home safety (reduce access to firearms and unsafe medication storage) for adolescents 12-17 years old presenting to rural EDs with suicidal ideation, self-harm, or mental health crisis?
  • Will implementing P&P decrease adolescent-reported perceived suicide risk and related outcomes (e.g., suicide events, and attendance at follow-up mental healthcare)?

Researchers will compare outcomes for adolescents and caregivers receiving P&P (implemented as the new standard of care at sites during the intervention periods) to those receiving usual care (prior to P&P implementation at those hospitals) to see if P&P increases home safety and decreases suicide risk and related healthcare utilization.

Participants will, if clinically appropriate:

  • Complete the tablet-based P&P modules during their ED visit
  • Complete self-report measures at baseline, ~30 days, and ~3 months post-discharge
  • A subset will also participate in semi-structured interviews

Tutkimuksen yleiskatsaus

Yksityiskohtainen kuvaus

One-in-five children and adolescents in the United States (US) live in rural areas where they are more likely to live in poverty, have neurodevelopmental, behavioral and mental health conditions, and die during childhood than their urban-residing peers. Suicide is a leading cause of childhood mortality, and rural-residing youth are two times more likely to die from suicide than urban-residing youth. Nearly half of children and adolescents with mental health conditions do not receive treatment, and those in rural areas face unique barriers to care due to geographic isolation, stigma, and shortages of pediatric services and clinicians. Given barriers to community-based mental healthcare, youth with suicidal ideation and/or suicide attempt (hereafter "suicidality") increasingly present to emergency departments (EDs) for care. However, most clinicians practicing in rural EDs are under-prepared and under-resourced to care for this population.

In order to fill this gap, this project aims to improve home safety and decrease suicide risk in youth 12-17 years of age who present to rural EDs with suicidal ideation, attempt, or mental health crisis, leveraging community-based participatory research approaches and technology to implement, with high fidelity, culturally-sensitive and nationally recommended safety planning procedures. To achieve this goal, we will integrate P&P, a culturally sensitive, tablet-based safety planning program as a quality improvement intervention at 5 hospitals in the Dartmouth Health network using a hospital-randomized stepped wedge design and will evaluate the program using a type 1 hybrid implementation-effectiveness design.

Aim: To determine the effectiveness of P&P compared to usual care for youth with suicide-related concerns and their caregivers to increase home safety and decrease suicide risk; evaluate the extent to which these outcomes are mediated by caregiver and youth self-efficacy and expectations of suicide risk; and assess the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance of P&P using a mixed methods approach.

Kokeellinen: Plan & Protect

Plan and Protect is a tablet-based program that integrates a youth-facing safety-planning module with a caregiver-facing home safety planning decision aid to create culturally sensitive, locally tailored safety plans and promote caregiver engagement in home safety during rural ED visits for adolescent suicidality

Plan and Protect (P&P) is a tablet-based, family-centered quality improvement program targeted to rural Northern New England that combines a youth-facing safety-planning module with a caregiver-facing home safety decision aid and youth safety information. The goal is to help adolescents and their caregivers develop concrete, culturally-sensitive safety plans during emergency department visits.

Muut: Care as usual

Outcomes for adolescents and their caregivers enrolled during the pre-implementation (usual care) periods at each hospital will be compared to outcomes for those enrolled after their hospital implements the P&P program as quality improvement

Adolescents and caregivers will receive treatment as usual at the Emergency Department.

The Efficacy to Cope with Suicidal Thoughts and Urges Scale was designed to measure children's abilities to manage suicide-related thoughts and impulses. It contains 10 coping skills and children rate their confidence in their ability to use each coping skill to manage their suicidality. Responses range from 0 to 10 with 0 = Not at all confident, 5 = Somewhat confident, and 10 = Extremely confident.
