People bereaved or affected by a suspected suicide should be given information and offered tailored support, according to the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
NICE has published a quality standard on suicide prevention, which covers five key ways to reduce suicide in England and help people bereaved or affected by suicide. The quality standard also describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.
It does not cover national strategies (including internet safety), general mental wellbeing, or areas such as the treatment and management of self-harm or mental health conditions.
