Determining the optimal dose of intervention, as a function of type and delivery method is also essential to successful suicide prevention. Other modes of delivery, such as web-based, telehealth, and mobile applications also hold promise. Most suicide-specific interventions are currently psychosocial in nature and delivered face-to-face by a single clinician or co-facilitator team. Interventions should also be available in individual and group format to increase the range of clinical settings in which they can be delivered in a cost-effective manner. To have broad uptake, interventions need to be simple enough that providers from multiple disciplines can learn to deliver them effectively and with fidelity. The most effective interventions will likely be those targeting factors which facilitate those transitions. Within his clinical interventions line of research, he believes that suicide is a clinical problem requiring targeted interventions to reduce the probability of individual patients transitioning from thoughts of suicide to action (i.e., attempts and suicide). To be most useful, tools need to be validated in a range of clinical settings from Emergency Departments to Inpatient Psychiatric to Outpatient Mental and Behavioral Health. He believes the most promising work will focus on identification of near-term risk (i.e., warning signs). Within his assessment line of research, he seeks to refine suicide assessment approaches to enable clinicians to make predictions about acute suicide risk so that treatment planning can be optimized for the greatest potential to prevent subsequent suicide-related behaviors.
