Summary: Counseling on Access to Lethal Means (CALM) is a powerful addition to existing strategies to reduce the risk of suicide death in at-risk people while respecting their rights and autonomy. Help keep your at-risk clients safe by learning how to collaborate with them to implement safe storage of firearms and dangerous medications. This training is listed in the Suicide Prevention Research Center's best practice registry. The oldest and most widely-used training on lethal means safety, CALM teaches why means matter and equips individuals with tools to intervene effectively with those at risk for suicide both upstream (before a crisis hits), as well as in times of crisis. This training workshop is designed specifically for clinicians and includes case studies, breakout discussions and valuable clinical training videos.
Intended Audience: Created for mental health clinicians, primary care providers, substance abuse counselors, hotline responders, and crisis intervention services.
Objectives: At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to…
- Summarize facts related to suicide deaths and lethal means.
- Inquire about the accessibility of lethal means with a client or guardian.
- Suggest safe storage for medications and firearms.
- Appraise the results of lethal means reduction in the world.
- Apply collaborative dialogue with a client or guardian through clinical videos, case study discussion and role play.
