N2  - As in other countries, suicides are a matter of great concern in The Netherlands. This article addresses suicide-prevention measures in prisons in The Netherlands. It focuses primarily on screening, monitoring, incapacitation, psychological support, and transferal to specialized institutions. In addition, it asks which practices are common, which can be improved, and the limitations of certain strategies. Relatively speaking, The Netherlands does not appear to be doing too badly in terms of preventive measures, although there is room for improvement.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
