Summary

This study tested a personalized follow-up plan (called ALGOS) for people who survived a suicide attempt. The goal was to see if this plan could reduce the number of people who try again within 6 months, compared to usual care. Over 1,000 adults took part, and researchers tracked suicide re-attempts, deaths, and costs.
