Introduction

Suicide can be defined as a deliberate act performed by the individual, whose intention is the death, in a conscious, intentional, even if ambivalent way, using a means that he believes to be lethal. They are also part of what we usually call suicidal behavior: thoughts, plans and attempted suicide.

Objectives

Prevention is a critical step in treating suicidal behavior. Create strategies to reduce and treat the ideation, planning and suicide attempt.

Methods

Based on a large increase in the number of people who present ideas, plan and attempt suicide, the Clinic created techniques for the treatment of inpatients: Life Appreciation Group, Groups applying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Group Dynamics, Lectures, Art Therapy and Physical activities .

Results

The actions are developed by a multidisciplinary team that is divided by applying the various techniques and participating in all the proposed activities.

Conclusions

Patients who remained hospitalized fully complying with the suggested treatment and left with medical discharge had full benefit, unlike some cases of patients removed by the family against our indication.
