Navigating Your First Year as a Nurse: Essential Tips for New Graduates

Navigating Complexities in Youth Experiencing Suicidality

Youth with complex suicide prevention needs often seek services outside of the mental health system, but many providers report not having the skills or confidence to manage these complex cases. As a result, today’s youth may not be receiving the care they need. This ECHO series expands Partners for Children’s Mental Health’s (PCMH) first ECHO series, Pediatric Suicide Prevention: A Practical Care Pathway for Primary Care (not a prerequisite), by addressing barriers identified by providers that often arise when delivering care to suicidal youth. This advanced series builds off the Zero Suicide care pathway by educating participants about navigating family systems, using skills to manage acute emotional distress and supporting families with mental health resources.
Health care and behavioral health providers in outpatient primary care/integrated medical settings. Support staff in medical or behavioral health integrated/outpatient settings are welcome to register.

Three weekly ECHO sessions held virtually
Tuesdays 12:00 - 1:00 PM MT
October 22 - November 5
