Suicide safety planning: What you need to know


Most of you use some form of safety planning to help people reduce their immediate risk of suicidal thinking and behaviour. There’s been little formal structure to guide this process and little evidence-based research to support interventions. The Safety Planning Intervention (SPI) brings much needed structure to this area of clinical practice.

Beyond Now is an evidence-based safety-planning app based on the SPI model. The app allows you to support people experiencing suicidal thoughts/feelings, distress or crisis by helping them create a plan and tailor strategies to meet individual needs.
