Our research is examining modifiable risk factors for the return of suicidal thoughts and behaviors among adolescents who have presented for hospitalization at UNC Youth Behavioral Health with symptoms of suicidal thoughts and/or behaviors. We aim to gain more understanding of the ways in which the hospitalization process impacts the chances for these thoughts and behaviors to return after being discharged from the hospital.
The study will have three time points: three days after admission to UNC Youth Behavioral Health, time of discharge, and then 3 months post-discharge. Your child will be asked to complete surveys at all 3 visits and an interview at time point 2 (discharge) with a research team member. As the caregiver, you will be asked to complete surveys at these 3 time points and complete a brief interview at time point 2. These can be done remotely or in person at UNC YBH. Each visit for your child should take approximately 60-75 minutes to complete, and each visit for you as the caregiver should take approximately 45-60 minutes to complete.
