abstract="The APA Practice Guideline for the Assessment and Treatment of Patients with Suicidal Behaviors may be a useful addition to the psychiatrist's clinical knowledge and practice. It is important to emphasize that there is no &quot;cook-book&quot; approach to suicide assessment. Suicide assessment is the quintessential clinical judgment and is based on a comprehensive psychiatric examination. As the guideline states, &quot;Suicide cannot be predicted and in some cases cannot be prevented, but an individual's suicide risk can be assessed and a treatment plan can be designed with the goal of reducing that risk&quot;.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
