Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
A practical and easy-to-use guide for healthcare professionals on the prevention, assessment and treatment of people at risk of suicide.
MoreLong description:
The current suicide public health crisis and advances in clinical practice have increased the need for clear, evidence-informed guidance on suicide prevention in healthcare. This clinical suicide prevention handbook is an essential resource for mental health and primary care professionals, and any practitioner aiming to ensure their practice is up-to-date, patient-centred and consistent with the most current standards of care. Starting with a summary of the science and public health model of suicide, the book offers quick tips for suicide screening, risk assessment, interventions, and follow-up communication. It discusses medicolegal risk management, how health systems can prevent suicide and provides highly specialized guidance for clinicians following the loss of a patient to suicide. Focused sections include incorporating social media into care plans, telemedicine, issues related to culture and race/ethnicity, and working with specific populations. It introduces an integrated, prevention-oriented approach to suicide prevention, incorporating realistic supports, foreseeable changes, and strategies.
'I thank the authors for this marvellous and much needed addition to my library. From the opening paragraphs, I was hooked and read the entirety of the handbook, word-for-word, learning something new and clinically applicable from each chapter. It is comprehensive in its scope, beautifully written and up-to-date and will remain on my work desk for use as an authoritative reference guide as challenging situations arise. Most chapters provide key points up front, summarize pertinent data, illustrate text with beautiful figures and case examples and close with clinical pearls and pertinent references. I recommend this handbook for all graduate level trainees and mental health clinicians who treat patients with serious mental illness. If a resident in psychiatry asks for the one must-read book or reference on suicide prevention, this will be it.' Sidney Zisook, Director, Residency Training Program, and Distinguished Professor of Psychiatry, University of California, San Diego
