An extraordinary perspective on Suicide Risk Assessments from Dr. Tyler Black via Psychiatry Boot Camp

"People are 14 times more likely to die during a hospital stay than outside of hospital for inpatient psychiatry."  In the last episode, I shared an episode of Psychiatry Boot Camp, which is a podcast created by Dr. Mark Mullen to help medical students and junior residents hone their psychiatric skills.  Mark interviews some of the most competent and amazing psychiatrists our country has to offer.  I am excited that Mark let me share his interview with Dr. Tyler Black, who talks about evaluating suicidal patients.  I have never heard any advice about suicide assessments as insightful and compassionate as what Tyler Black has to offer.Please leave feedback at https://www.psydactic.com or send any comments to [email protected] and readings (when available) are posted at the end of each episode transcript, located at psydactic.buzzsprout.com.  All opinions expressed in this podcast are exclusively those of the person speaking and should not be confused with the opinions of anyone else.  We reserve the right to be wrong.  Nothing in this podcast should be treated as individual medical advice.
