简要总结
People in detention are at significantly higher risk of suicide compared to the general population. In Belgian prisons, the suicide rate is five times higher than average. Despite the availability of suicide prevention tools, many are not scientifically validated or adapted to the detention context, leading to inconsistent use and missed warning signs.
This study aims to evaluate and adapt three evidence-based suicide prevention tools-the Safety Plan, the guideline for the care and evaluation of suicidality , and the Risk Formulation template-for use in detention settings. Through interviews with both professionals working in prisons and individuals in detention, the study explores how these tools can be made more relevant, practical, and effective in this unique environment.
The research involves 40 participants: 20 professionals and 20 individuals in detention. Interviews will gather feedback on the tools' usability, clarity, and fit with the realities of prison life. The ultimate goal is to improve suicide prevention practices in detention by offering tailored, scientifically grounded tools that support both staff and detainees.

结局指标
主要结局
Evaluation of Suicide Prevention Tools in the Detention Context
时间窗: Each participant is assessed during one (for incarcerated individuals) or up to three (for professionals) interviews
This outcome measure assesses the usability, applicability, and improvement potential of three suicide prevention tools based on qualitative feedback from professionals working in detention and individuals in detention. Through semi-structured interviews, the study explores how these tools are experienced in practice, identifies perceived strengths and limitations, and gathers concrete suggestions for adaptation to better fit the detention environment.
