"The Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS) is one of a handful of suicide-focused clinical treatments with extensive clinical trial support. CAMS is a therapeutic framework that focuses on patient-identified "drivers" of what makes them suicidal. CAMS is patient centered and focuses on empathy, collaboration, and honesty. As an outpatient intervention CAMS is designed to form a strong clinical alliance and to increase motivation in the patient with helpful clinical documentation that reduces the risk of malpractice liability."

This new interactive, self-paced learning module from The Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University offers an overview of key science concepts related to early childhood development, including: 

• how children's earliest experiences — beginning before birth — impact their development and health;
• how early development of the brain and other organ systems affects lifelong health and well-being;
• toxic stress and its relationship to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), trauma, and resilience;
• how moving upstream to address structural inequalities while also addressing individual needs can build children’s resilience and promote healthy development; and more!

Youth suicide rates are continuing to rise, with significant disparities in rates across high-risk populations. Suicide prevention efforts require a multipronged public health approach, with significant opportunities for healthcare providers to be partners in this effort. Suicide care treatments, like CAMS, can reduce suicidal thoughts, behaviors and death. But how do we ensure that we can identify and support youth at greatest risk for suicide and get them to the care they need? Most young people who die by suicide are often seen by healthcare providers in the weeks and months prior to their deaths, indicating that this setting can be leveraged to identify and care for those at risk. 

This presentation will focus on how feasible and efficient suicide risk clinical pathways can identify those most in need of suicide care using evidence-based screeners like ASQ.
