This month, we'll review research examining the rural-urban disparity in the risk of death by suicide among VA patients. Join Brian Shiner, MD, MPH, to discuss the demographic differences between rural and urban patients contributing to this disparity as well as address strategies to improve coding of VA race and ethnicity data.

Veterans and Caregivers

Call the Veterans Crisis Line at 1-800-273-8255 and Press 1, send a text message to 838255, or chat online. Find Veteran Suicide Prevention information and resources on the Veterans Crisis Line website.
Postvention
Many providers will experience a loss to suicide during their careers. This loss can have profound personal and professional impacts.
SRM consultation is available to any provider serving Veterans who would like support surrounding a suicide loss and/or to consult on postvention practices.
To request a postvention consult, email SRMConsult@va.gov.
Visit the Uniting for Suicide Postvention (USPV) website to explore resources for community, providers, and workplaces who are healing after suicide loss. To learn more about postvention consultation, please reference the SRM Postvention Factsheet.
