Responding To Suicide (RTS) training is evidence and practice-based, and informed by the lived-experience of both emergency service personnel and those bereaved by suicide. It provides guidance for staff on how to respond to suicide more effectively, which can be applied in a practical sense.
The training has been designed by a team with a wealth of experience in the emergency services, suicide postvention (care of those bereaved by suicide), and prevention. Several authors have received awards for their work in postvention.
This one-day interactive programme is delivered by facilitators with combined experience in:
- Investigating and responding to suicide and working with bereaved families;
- Working in the field of suicide prevention and postvention (care of those bereaved by suicide).
