Summary

This study evaluated VigilanS, a program that provides coordinated follow-up care for people in northern France who have survived a suicide attempt. Researchers tracked over 12,000 participants to see if the program reduced repeat attempts and improved care coordination. The goal is to standardize practices and lower suicide rates in the region.

What could go wrong: This is an observational evaluation, not a controlled trial, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to other regions.
