Congratulations to our symposium contributors for a fascinating debate on interventions with older people with suicide ideation and behaviour #ESSSB20 #Rome24

Old & new approaches to suicide prevention. Great to hear Dr Alejandro Alban on the potential of psilocybin and ketamine on suicidal ideation. A few practical barriers to progress with research in the area but important work and trials currently running #esssb20

Great to hear Prof Mark Sinyor on Partnerships for Life in the Americas. Collaborative work in the Americas including Ecuador 🇪🇨 #esssb20

⁦Eibhlin Walsh, PhD⁩ presenting her PhD at #esssb20 on Evaluation of the minding your wellbeing programme adapted for veterinary medicine students in Ireland. Excellent presentation and important research ⁦National Suicide Research Foundation⁩

Reflecting on my time at #ESSSB20 Great to have 2 symposiums from our International Association for Suicide Prevention SIG older adults. Important work done around the globe in suicide prevention in older adults: USA, UK, Singapore, Sweden, Belgium, Ireland, Canada, N Zealand. More representation needed from LMICs

Back from #ESSSB20 &catching up on research. A must read for anyone interested in suicide prevention &co-production, Dr Maria Michail 💙 paper describing the process of youth involvement &co-production in the development of a GP guide for young people is a GEM bmjopen.bmj.com/content/13/10/…

Definetely a cultural change needed with how we think of suicide research as researchers. So many important points raised by Hazel Marzetti a must read for all in the field!

On #WorldMentalHealthDay it’s important to look at preventative measures and have access to the appropriate support networks for positive mental health particularly those over 65 years. HSE CHO DNCC @MHANPI (Mental Health/ID ANP Ireland) Mary Butler TD Mellany McLoone Essene Cassidy IAANMP
